A279369 A mapping of rationals a/b (lowest form) to prime rationals p/q such that a/b = (p+1)/(q+1), where n (the sequence index) selects the rationals a/b from the triangle array A226314(n)/A054531(n) and a(n) selects the prime rationals p/q from the same array.

Rationals a/b (lowest form) can be mapped 1-to-1 to a positive integer n where a/b is the n-th term of the triangular array A226314(n)/A054531(n). Consider two function of x, f_1 = ax-1 and f_2 = bx-1. Then by Schinzel's Hypothesis H there are infinite values of x such that f_1 and f_2 are simultaneously prime allowing a/b to be expressed using two primes p and q as a/b=(p+1)/(q+1).
By choosing the least x for generating p=f_1 and q=f_2 (see A278635) it is possible to find a unique prime rational p/q that maps to rational a/b. If n is the sequence index that selects the rational a/b from the triangular array A226314(n)/A054531(n), then a(n) selects the prime rationals p/q from the same array.

Examples

			a(7)=57 because A226314(7)/A054531(7)=1/4 and with least x=3 we have p=f_1=x-1=2 and q=f_2=4x-1=11. Therefore (p+1)/(q+1)=3/12=1/4. Also A226314(57)/A054531(57)=p/q=2/11.
