FORMULA

Nest[ d, a[ n ], 2 ]=2 or d[ d[ a[ n ] ] ]=2, where d[ x ]=tau[ x ]=sigma[ 0, x ], the number of divisors of x.

EXAMPLE

From powers of 2 4,16,64,1024,4096,65536 are in the sequence since exponent+1 is also prime. The same powers of any prime base also included.. d[ a[ n ] ]=p-1+1=p and d[ d[ [ a[ n ] ] ]=2 already stationary.

PROG

(PARI) for(n=1, 34000, if(isprime(n), n++, x=numdiv(n); if(isprime(x), print(n))))
