COMMENT

Sequence A028372 considers primes with this property, but allowing for nonzero a,b (which obviously is irrelevant for n>2). Up to n=13, the terms of the present sequence are prime without imposing it explicitely and thus coincide with A028372 except for n=2.

a(n) > 10^9 for n >= 47. [From Donovan Johnson (donovan.johnson(AT)yahoo.com), Sep 29 2009]

EXAMPLE

a(1) = 2 = 1^2 + 1^2 is the least number of the sequence A000404 (sum of positive squares). a(2) = 17 = 1^2 + 4^2 = 3^2 + 2*2^2 is the least number in sequence A000404 to be in sequence A154777 (a^2+2b^2)as well. a(3) = 73 = 3^2 + 8^2 = 1^2 + 2*6^2 = 5^2 + 3*4^2 is the least number in the intersection of sequences A000404, A154777 and A092572 (a^2+3b^2).

PROGRAM

(PARI) k=1; for( n=1, 10^9, forstep( c=k, 1, -1, for( b=1, sqrtint((n-1)\c), issquare(n-c*b^2) & next(2)); next(2)); print1(n", "); k++; n--)
