Number of primes of form x*y+1 with x+y=n.
For n <= 10^7, a(n) = 0 only for n = 1, 6, 30 and 54. - Robert Israel, Oct 30 2024

Examples

			a(7) = 3, 1*6 +1 = 7, 2*5 +1 = 11, 3*4 +1 = 13.
n=16: {m: m=x*y+1 and x+y=16} = {16,29,40,49,56,61,64,65} containing two primes: 29 and 61, therefore a(16)=2.
n = 7 is the only number which gives primes for all possible values of k.

k can take values from 1 to floor[n/2].
a(n)=0 for k = 1, 6, 30 and 54. Are there any others? - Robert Israel, Feb 23 2018
There are none for n up to 10^9. - Mauro Fiorentini, Jul 24 2023

Examples

			a(15) = 37 as 1*14 +1 = 16, 2*13 +1 = 27 are composite but 3*12 +1= 37 is a prime.
a(6) = 0 as 1*5 +1=6, 2*4 +1=9, 3*3 +1 = 10 are all composite.

A109907 Beginning with 7, a(n+1) = greatest prime of the form k*{a(n)-k}-1. If no prime is obtained the sequence ends at that point.
