%N Ninth powers: a(n) = n^9.

%C A number of the form a(n) + a(n+1) + ... + a(n+k) is never prime for all n, k>=0. It could be proved by the method indicated in the comment in A256581. - _Vladimir Shevelev_ and _Peter J. C. Moses_, Apr 04 2015

%C A generalization. Using modified Lengyel's 2007 ideas one can prove that, for every odd r>=3, every number of the form n^r + (n+1)^r + ... + (n+k)^r is nonprime. - _Vladimir Shevelev_, Apr 04 2015

%C Composition of the cubes with themselves. - _Wesley Ivan Hurt_, Apr 01 2016
