A273595 Least q > 0 such that min { x >= 0 | q + prime(n)*x + x^2 is composite } is a (local) maximum, cf. A273756 & A273770.

%C A273595 This is a subsequence of A273756 which considers all odd numbers (2n+1) instead of only prime(n) as coefficients of the linear term.
%C A273595 All terms are necessarily prime, since this is necessary and sufficient to get a prime for x = 0.
%C A273595 The respective minima (= number of consecutive primes for x = 0, 1, 2, ...) are given in A273597.
%C A273595 It has been pointed out by _Don Reble_ that the prime k-tuple conjecture predicts infinitely long sequences of primes of the given form, therefore we consider the "local" maxima, for q below some appropriate (large) limit: see sequences A273756 & A273770 for further details. - _M.
