The only twin primes that are Fibonacci numbers are 3, 5 and 13 [MacKinnon]. - Emeric Deutsch, Apr 24 2005

(p,p+2) are twin primes iff p+2 can be represented as the sum of two primes. Brun (1919): Even if there are infinitely many twin primes, the series of all twin prime reciprocals does converges against Brun's constant (A065421). Clement (1949): (n,n+2) are twin primes iff (4*(n-1)!+n+4) mod n*(n+2) = 0. - Stefan Steinerberger (hansibal(AT)hotmail.com), Dec 04 2005
