Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Least positive integer k such that both k and k*n belong to the set {m>0: 2*prime(prime(m))+1 = prime(p) for some prime p}.

%C Conjecture: Let a,b,c be positive integers with gcd(a,b) = gcd(a,c) = gcd(b,c) = 1. If a+b+c is even and a is not equal to b, then any positive rational number r can be written as m/n with m and n in the set {k>0: a*prime(p) - b*prime(prime(k)) = c for some prime p}.

%C This implies the conjecture in A261361.
