%N a(n) = smallest prime which can be expressed as a sum of distinct powers of n.

%C a(n) = smallest prime whose base n representation contains only zeros and 1's.

%C Values of n at which a(n) reach record values are: 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 25, 49, 91, 121, 187, 201, 301, 721, 799, 841... Notably, many of them are squares of primes. - _Ivan Neretin_, Sep 20 2017
