cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

A277118 For a lesser p of twin primes, let B_k be A159559, but with initial term k; then a(n) is the smallest m such that B_(p+2)(m)-B_p(m)>6, where p = A001359(n-1), or a(n) = 0 if there is no such m.

a(n) = 3 on a subsequence of measure 1. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Oct 17 2016

A276848 For a lesser p of twin primes, let B_(p+2) and B_p be sequences defined as A159559, but with initial terms p+2 and p respectively. The sequence lists p for which all differences B_(p+2)(n)-B_p(n)<=6.

B_(p+2)(n) - B_p(n) < 6 for all n >= 2 if and only if p = 3.
It is astonishing that, although terms a(n) == 7 or 9 (mod 10) occur often, the first terms a(n)==1 (mod 10) are 11, 165701, ... (cf. A022009). This phenomenon is explained in the Shevelev link.
