Some of the larger entries may only correspond to probable primes.

In general, for any positive integers n, a and b, a>b, a necessary condition for a^n-b^n to be prime is that either a-b=1 and n be a prime or n=1 and a-b be prime (from Arturo Magidin and Hagman in Sci.Math, Sep 11, 2010). - Vincenzo Librandi, Sep 12 2010
