Also, smallest member of the first pair of consecutive primes such that between them is a composite number divisible by the n-th prime. - Amarnath Murthy, Sep 25 2002
Except for its initial term, A006992 is a subsequence based on iteration of n -> A151799(2n). The range of this sequence is a subset of A065091. - M. F. Hasler, May 08 2016
