I am assuming that there is not even for any special forms. Thank you for your time. ETA I am only interested in deterministic tests here. Last fiddled with by a1call on 2018-11-04 at 17:52

 2018-11-04, 18:24 #3 a1call     "Rashid Naimi" Oct 2015 Remote to Here/There 23·11·23 Posts I don't have a solution for either but for what I am working on +/-6 shortcut would be useful while +/-2 won't be of any use. Any prime +/-2 will have one of them with a factor of 3 and won't be prime (5 not withstanding). Not so with 6. Last fiddled with by a1call on 2018-11-04 at 18:28

via a version of the sieve of sundaram p a prime

is not
6*((6*j+1)*i+j)+1 or 6*((6*j-1)*i+j)-1or 6*((6*j-1)*i-j)+1
enjoy

 2018-11-04, 19:18 #5 a1call     "Rashid Naimi" Oct 2015 Remote to Here/There 23·11·23 Posts Interesting algorithm SM. Thank you for introducing me to it. But I suspect that won't be of direct use for record primes. In particular I assume some of the record (Mersenne perhaps) primes are (not highly but still) likely to have neighboring primes that are 6 off. Knowing that they are prime does not seem to have been useful in proving therm prime. I recall the board members here checking to see if the M50 was twin before publication. I assume if it was they would have been restricted to usual primality tests based on +/-1 factoring independent of M50 being prime. Last fiddled with by a1call on 2018-11-04 at 19:19

aka you suspect http://oeis.org/A002450
to have members a(n) such that a(n)-1 or a(n)+1 create primes.

If you must know I am working on projecting triples of primes which are 6 off into twins. It's work in progress and I am too lazy to continue right now. If you (or anyone else for that matter) can find any prior research in the area, I would appreciate a reference to save me time.

there are 4 triples that work mod 5 (without creating 5 itself):

(6*Mod(0,5)+1,6*Mod(1,5)+1,6*Mod(2,5)+1)
(6*Mod(1,5)+1,6*Mod(2,5)+1,6*Mod(3,5)+1)
(6*Mod(2,5)-1,6*Mod(3,5)-1,6*Mod(4,5)-1)
(6*Mod(3,5)-1,6*Mod(4,5)-1,6*Mod(0,5)-1)

 2018-11-04, 21:57 #9 Dr Sardonicus     Feb 2017 Nowhere 10001110010002 Posts It's gratuitously confusing to use p for a prime -- then say "or otherwise." We have n - a, n, n + a is an "admissible triple" in the sense of the "prime k-tuples conjecture" when x^3 - a^2*x is not automatically divisible by some prime. Since the characteristic polynomial of the field of p elements is x^p - x, here we can only have x^3 - a^2*x automatically divisible by p = 2 or 3. If a is not divisible by 2, x^3 - a^2*x == a^3 - x (mod 2) which is divisible by x^2 - x; hence x^2 - a^2*x is always even. Thus, in order for n - a, n, n + a to be admissible, a must be even. If a is not divisible by 3, then a^2 == 1 (mod 3) and x^3 - a^2*x == x^3 - x (mod 3), so x^2 - a^2*x is divisible by 3. So in order to be admissible, a must be divisible by 3. If a is divisible by 6, then n - a, n, n + a is admissible. According to the prime k-tuples conjecture, the number of n's up to X for which all three of n - a, n, n + a are prime, is, asymptotically, a constant (which depends on a) times X/(ln(X))^3. Now the pair n - a, n + a is also admissible (in fact, this pair is admissible for any positive integer a, but let's stick to a divisible by 6). In this case, the conjecture says that the number of n's up to X for which both n - a and n + a are prime, is asymptotically a constant (which depends on a) times X/(ln(X))^2. So, the number of prime pairs n - a, n + a is likely much greater than the number of prime triples n - a, n, n + a, assuming 6|a. It's almost certainly greater if gcd(6,a) < 6 :-D I doubt knowing the factorization of n has much bearing on deciding whether n - a and n + a are both prime. What I would look at, is eliminating n's for which either n - a or n + a have any small prime factors.

Code:
my(p=6); parforprime (q=19^0,5^5,(q-2)!,e,a=(e-1)/q; if(gcd(a-p,a+p-e)==1, c=(a+p)*q-e; d=e-(a-p)*q; print("\n**** Found Twin-Primes based on Prime ",q," ****"); print("** ",c," & ",d," **"); );)
At that lower limit, this cuts off about 33% off of a normal forprime loop and two checks in the if. I assume the output is correct. ( Assumption FAILED)
