a(n) is the sum of all elements of the n X n matrix M(i,j) = prime(i+1)+prime(j+1).
[For n<= 23, only five matrices (with n=1, n=2, n=3, n=5 and n=7) contain all the even numbers starting from 6 and ending with 2*prime(n+1), the maximum element. If the prime gap prime(n+1)-prime(n) is larger than 2, the even term 2*prime(n+1)-2 is missing in the matrix; the difference equal 2 between prime(n) and prime(n-1) is not a sufficient condition to have a complete set of even numbers in the range 6 .. 2*prime(n+1) in the matrix.]
