Shevelev's parametrized twin-prime construction conjecture

Let m4m\geq4, set Am={1,,m3}A_m=\{1,\ldots,m-3\}, and define

c~(m)(1)=m,\tilde{c}^{(m)}(1)=m,

with, for n2n\geq2,

c~(m)(n)=c~(m)(n1)+{gcd(n,c~(m)(n1)),if n is even,gcd(n2,c~(m)(n1)),if n is odd.\tilde{c}^{(m)}(n)=\tilde{c}^{(m)}(n-1)+\begin{cases}\gcd(n,\tilde{c}^{(m)}(n-1)),&\text{if }n\text{ is even},\gcd(n-2,\tilde{c}^{(m)}(n-1)),&\text{if }n\text{ is odd}.\end{cases}

Let n=n(m)n^*=n^*(m) be the point of the last nontrivial increment of {c~(m)(n)}\{\tilde{c}^{(m)}(n)\} on AmA_m, with n=1n^*=1 if there is no nontrivial increment on AmA_m. Shevelev's parametrized twin-prime construction conjecture. The numbers c~(m)(n)n1\tilde{c}^{(m)}(n^*)-n^*\mp1 are twin primes. This proposed construction is intended to produce twin primes from each integer m4m\geq4; the supplied text gives no resolution.
