A284047 - OEIS

A284047

a(n) is the smallest positive integer not already in the sequence such that a(n) + a(n-1) and a(n)^2 + a(n-1)^2 are primes, with a(1) = 1.

EXAMPLE

a(4) = 8 because 1, 2 and 3 have already been used in the sequence, 3 + 4 = 7 is a prime but 3^2 + 4^2 = 25 is not prime, 3 + 5 = 8, 3 + 6 = 9, 3 + 7 = 10 are not primes while 3 + 8 = 11 is a prime and 3^2 + 8^2 = 73 is a prime also.

MATHEMATICA

f[s_List] := Block[{k = 1, a = s[[-1]]}, While[MemberQ[s, k] || ! (PrimeQ[a + k] && PrimeQ[a^2 + k^2]), k++]; Append[s, k]]; Nest[f, {1}, 80]
