A370204 a(n) is the smallest number k for which the length of the central extent of width 0 in the symmetric representation of sigma, SRS(k), equals 2*n and is -1 if there is no such extent of length 2*n.

%N A370204 a(n) is the smallest number k for which the length of the central extent of width 0 in the symmetric representation of sigma, SRS(k), equals 2*n and is -1 if there is no such extent of length 2*n.
%C A370204 Indices of the first occurrence of value 2*n in A368945.
%C A370204 SRS(a(n)) has an even number of parts.
%C A370204 The maximum possible central 0 width extent in SRS(n) for odd numbers n is 2*n - (n+1) - 2 = n - 3. This is achieved only by odd prime numbers which form a subsequence.
%C A370204 Conjecture: a(n) != -1 for all n >= 0.
%F A370204 a(n) = min( k : A368945(k) = 2*n ), 0<=n, if the minimum exists, a(n) = -1 otherwise.
%F A370204 A368945(a(k)) = 2 * k, k>=0 and a(k) != -1.
%e A370204 a(2) = 7 since prime 7 is the smallest number whose central extent of width 0 equals 4.
%e A370204 a(3) = 22 since 22 is the smallest number whose central extent of width 0 equals 6.
