Conjecture: In the supposition that there are infinitely many twin primes, for n>=5 all terms are in A001359 (lesser of twin primes).
Note that a unique prime which is contained in an interval of the form (prime(m)*n, prime(m+1)*n) is called n-isolated (see author's link, where a heuristic proof is given that the number of n-isolated primes<=x approaches e^{-2(n-1)}x/log(x) as x goes to infinity (cf. Conjecture 25, Remark 26 and formula (47)). One can easily prove that a(n) is not bounded.
This conjecture seems hard, since it's not obvious how to find an upper bound for a(n) (see Conjecture 42 in the Shevelev link). - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jan 02 2013

			Let n=5, and consider intervals of the form (5*prime(m), 5*prime(m+1)).
For 2, 3, 5, ..., the intervals (10,15), (15,25), (25,35), (35,55), (55,65), (65,85), (85,95)... contain 2, 3, 2, 5, 2, 4, 1,... primes. Hence the smallest such prime is 17.

For a given n>=2, a prime p such that there is no other prime in the interval [n*prevprime(p/n), n*nextprime(p/n)] is called n-isolated.

Conjectures. 1) a(n) > 0; 2) a(n)/n is between 2 and 3 or between the smaller and larger member of a twin prime pair.

			a(5) = 89 because there are no primes except 89 in the interval [5*prevprime(89/5), 5*nextprime(89/5)] = [5*17, 5*19] = [85, 95].  And 89 is the smallest such prime - for example, if q = 37 < 89, then the interval [5*nextprime(q/5), 5*nextprime(q/5)] = [5*7,5*11] = [35,55] contains 4 primes other than 41, namely 37, 43, 47, and 53. - _Vladimir Shevelev_, Nov 04 2012.

Conjecture: a(n)>0 for all n.

			The first pair of twin primes is (3,5). For k=1 and 2, we have the intervals (3,5) and (6,10), such that not the first but the second interval contains exactly one prime(7). Thus a(1)=2. For n=2 and k=1 to 4, we have the intervals (5,7),(10,14),(15,21), and (20,28) and only the last interval contains exactly one prime(23). Thus, a(2)=4.
