COMMENTS

Since (except for 3) all lucky primes == 1 (mod 6), a(n) >= 6 for n >= 2. - Robert Israel, Jul 26 2019

FORMULA

a(n) = A031157(n+1) - A031157(n).

EXAMPLE

a(1) = 4 because difference between the first (3) and second (7) lucky prime is 4.

a(2) = 6 because difference between 7 and 13 is 6.
