A233512 The first n cyclotomic polynomials are simultaneously prime for these arguments. 1
3, 4, 6, 150, 1068630, 6770610 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; text; internal format)

COMMENTS
The first six cyclotomic polynomials are x - 1, x + 1, x^2 + x + 1, x^2 + 1, x^4 + x^3 + x^2 + x + 1, and x^2 - x + 1.
By Schinzel's hypothesis H, this sequence is defined for all n.
a(7) > 2*10^9.

EXAMPLE
At x = 3, x-1 = 2, which is prime. At x = 4, x-1 = 3 and x+1 = 5, which are both prime. At x = 6, x-1 = 5, x+1 = 7, and x^2+x+1 = 43, which are all prime.
MATHEMATICA
t = {}; n = 0; len = 0; While[len < 6, n++; found = True; i = 1; While[found && i <= len + 1, found = PrimeQ[Cyclotomic[i, n]]; i++]; If[found && i > len + 1, AppendTo[t, n]; len++]]; t
