These are also the numbers that cannot be written as i*j + i + j (i,j >= 1). - Rainer Rosenthal, Jun 24 2001; Henry Bottomley, Jul 06 2002
The values of k for which Sum_{j=0..n} (-1)^j*binomial(k, j)*binomial(k-1-j, n-j)/(j+1) produces an integer for all n such that n < k. Setting k=10 yields [0, 1, 4, 11, 19, 23, 19, 11, 4, 1, 0] for n = [-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9], so 10 is in the sequence. Setting k=3 yields [0, 1, 1/2, 1/2] for n = [-1, 0, 1, 2], so 3 is not in the sequence. - Dug Eichelberger (dug(AT)mit.edu), May 14 2001
n such that x^n + x^(n-1) + x^(n-2) + ... + x + 1 is irreducible. - Robert G. Wilson v, Jun 22 2002

From Reinhard Zumkeller, Jul 10 2009: (Start)
The first N terms can be generated by the following sieving process:
  start with {1, 2, 3, 4, ..., N - 1, N};
  for i := 1 until SQRT(N) do
  (if (i is not striked out) then
  (for j := 2 * i + 1 step i + 1 until N do
  (strike j from the list)));
  remaining numbers = {a(n): a(n) <= N}. (End)
a(n) = partial sums of A075526(n-1) = Sum_{1..n} A075526(n-1) = Sum_{1..n} (A008578(n+1) - A008578(n)) = Sum_{1..n} (A158611(n+2) - A158611(n+1)) for n >= 1. - Jaroslav Krizek, Aug 04 2009
A006093 U A072668 = A000027. - Juri-Stepan Gerasimov, Oct 22 2009
A171400(a(n)) = 1 for n <> 2: subsequence of A171401, except for a(2) = 2. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Dec 08 2009
Numerator of (1 - 1/prime(n)). - Juri-Stepan Gerasimov, Jun 05 2010
Numbers n such that A002322(n+1) = n. This statement is stronger than repeating the property of the entries in A002322, because it also says in reciprocity that this sequence here contains no numbers beyond the Carmichael numbers with that property. - Michel Lagneau, Dec 12 2010
a(n) = A192134(A095874(A000040(n))); subsequence of A192133. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jun 26 2011
prime(a(n)) + prime(k) < prime(a(k) + k) for at least one k <= a(n): A212210(a(n),k) < 0. - Reinhard Zumkeller, May 05 2012
Except for the first term, numbers n such that the sum of first n natural numbers does not divide the product of first n natural numbers; that is, n*(n + 1)/2 does not divide n!. - Jayanta Basu, Apr 24 2013
BigOmega(a(n)) equals BigOmega(a(n)*(a(n) + 1)/2), where BigOmega = A001222. Rationale: BigOmega of the product on the right hand side factorizes as BigOmega(a/2) + Bigomega(a+1) = BigOmega(a/2) + 1 because a/2 and a + 1 are coprime, because BigOmega is additive, and because a + 1 is prime. Furthermore Bigomega(a/2) = Bigomega(a) - 1 because essentially all 'a' are even. - Irina Gerasimova, Jun 06 2013
Record values of A060681. - Omar E. Pol, Oct 26 2013
Deficiency of n-th prime. - Omar E. Pol, Jan 30 2014
Conjecture: All the sums Sum_{k=s..t} 1/a(k) with 1 <= s <= t are pairwise distinct. In general, for any integers d >= -1 and m > 0, if Sum_{k=i..j} 1/(prime(k)+d)^m = Sum_{k=s..t} 1/(prime(k)+d)^m with 0 < i <= j and 0 < s <= t then we must have (i,j) = (s,t), unless d = m = 1 and {(i,j),(s,t)} = {(4,4),(8,10)} or {(4,7),(5,10)}. (Note that 1/(prime(8)+1)+1/(prime(9)+1)+1/(prime(10)+1) = 1/(prime(4)+1) and Sum_{k=5..10} 1/(prime(k)+1) = 1/(prime(4)+1) + Sum_{k=5..7} 1/(prime(k)+1).) - Zhi-Wei Sun, Sep 09 2015
Numbers n such that (prime(i)^n + n) is divisible by (n+1), for all i >= 1, except when prime(i) = n+1. - Richard R. Forberg, Aug 11 2016
a(n) is the period of Fubini numbers (A000670) over the n-th prime. - Federico Provvedi, Nov 28 2020

Version 2 of the "next prime" function is "smallest prime > n". This produces A151800.
Maple uses version 2.
According to the "k-tuple" conjecture, a(n) is the initial term of the lexicographically earliest increasing arithmetic progression of n primes; the corresponding common differences are given by A061558. - David W. Wilson, Sep 22 2007
It is easy to show that the initial term of an increasing arithmetic progression of n primes cannot be smaller than a(n). - N. J. A. Sloane, Oct 18 2007
Also, smallest prime bounded by n and 2n inclusively (in accordance with Bertrand's theorem). Smallest prime >n is a(n+1) and is equivalent to smallest prime between n and 2n exclusively. - Lekraj Beedassy, Jan 01 2007
Run lengths of successive equal terms are given by A125266. - Felix Fröhlich, May 29 2022
Conjecture: if n > 1, then a(n) < n^(n^(1/n)). - Thomas Ordowski, Feb 23 2023
