COMMENT

I think the list is complete since I have flow-charted many of the possibilites and I am in the process of checking in the range 10^11 < p < 10^12 but it will take a while.

EXAMPLE

a(11)=101 since the pattern "*1*0*1*" does not occur in any previously found prime of the form 4n+1. Assuming all previous members of the list have been similarly recursively constructed, then 109 is the next prime in the list. The basic rule is: if no substring of p matches any previously found prime, add p to the list. The basic theorem of minimal sets says that this process will terminate, that is, the minimal set is always finite.

MAPLE

with(StringTools); wc := proc(s) cat("*", Join(convert(s, list), "*"), "*") end; M1:=[]: wcM1:=[]: p:=1: for z from 1 to 1 do for k while p<10^11 do p:=nextprime(p); if k mod 100000 = 0 then print(k, p, evalf((time()-st)/60, 4)) fi; if p mod 4 = 1 then sp:=convert(p, string); if andmap(proc(w) not(WildcardMatch(w, sp)) end, wcM1) then M1:=[op(M1), p]; wcM1:=[op(wcM1), wc(sp)]; print(p) fi fi od od; # let it run for a couple of days
