Then (b_m(k))_{k>=1} is the sequence of integers such that u(b_m(k))=0 and we conjecture that for k large enough m*b_m(k)+m-1 is a prime number. Here for m=5 it appears a(n) is prime for n>=2. %C A186257 See A261305 for the sequence u relevant here (m=5). - _M. F. Hasler_, Aug 14 2015 %H A186257 B.
