COMMENTS

Prime gaps are differences between adjacent prime numbers.

Essentially the same as A145024. - R. J. Mathar, Mar 16 2020

Table of n, a(n) for n=1..72.

FORMULA

Ones correspond to balanced prime quartets (A054800), so the sum of terms up to but not including the n-th one is A000720(A054800(n - 1)) = A090832(n).

EXAMPLE

The prime gaps split into the following subsequences without adjacent equal terms: (1,2), (2,4,2,4,2,4,6,2,6,4,2,4,6), (6,2,6,4,2,6,4,6,8,4,2,4,2,4,14,4,6,2,10,2,6), (6,4,6), (6,2,10,2,4,2,12), (12,4,2,4,6,2,10,6), ...
