Related to the 4.X Selfridge Conjecture by P. Underwood, which states that p is prime iff such a y exists.

Records occur at [p=prime(k),y=a(k)] = [A205532(n), A205534(n)] = [2, 1], [13, 3], [61, 5], [109, 6], [1009, 9], [2689, 11], [8089, 15], [33049, 17], [53881, 21], [87481, 27], [483289, 29], [515761, 35], [1083289, 39], [3818929, 45], ...
