 A233539 a(n) = |{0 < k < n-2: m - 1, m + 1, prime(m) - m and prime(m) + m are all prime with m = phi(k) + phi(n-k)/2}|, where phi(.) is Euler's totient function. 2

 OFFSET 1,8 COMMENTS Conjecture: (i) a(n) > 0 for all n > 794. (ii) For any integer n > 59, there is a positive integer k < n such that m = phi(k) + phi(n-k)/4 is an integer with prime(m) - m and prime(m) + m both prime. Clearly, part (i) of the conjecture implies that there are infinitely many positive integers m with m - 1, m + 1, prime(m) - m and prime(m) + m all prime. LINKS Zhi-Wei Sun, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..10000 EXAMPLE a(21) = 1 since phi(6) + phi(15)/2 = 6 with 6 - 1 = 5, 6 + 1 = 7, prime(6) - 6 = 7 and prime(6) + 6 = 19 all prime. a(25) = 1 since phi(17) + phi(8)/2 = 18 with 18 - 1 = 17, 18 + 1 = 19, prime(18) - 18 = 43 and prime(18) + 18 = 79 all prime.
