 OFFSET 0,1 COMMENTS a(15)=87888966 but a(14) is unknown. - Jeppe Stig Nielsen, Mar 17 2018 The prime pair related to a(14) was found four days ago, and today double checking has proved that they are indeed the first occurrence for n=14. - Jeppe Stig Nielsen, May 02 2018 LINKS FORMULA a(n) = A118539(n)-1. - Jeppe Stig Nielsen, Feb 27 2016 EXAMPLE a(0) = 2 because 2^1+1 = 3 and 4^1+1 = 5 are prime; a(1) = 2 because 2^2+1 = 5 and 4^2+1 = 17 are prime; a(2) = 2 because 2^4+1 = 17 and 4^4+1 = 257 are prime; a(3) = 2 because 2^8+1 = 257 and 4^8+1 = 65537 are prime.
