COMMENTS

Conjectures: (Strong) Let x,y be 2 positive integers and define a(n) as a(1)=1, a(n)=x*a(n-1) if a(n-1) is prime, a(n)=a(n-1)+y otherwise; then limit n ->infinity log(a(n))/sqrt(n)=C(x,y) exists. (Weak) log(a(n))/sqrt(n) is bounded.

FORMULA

It seems that log(a(n))/sqrt(n) -> C, a constant around 1.3.....

PROG

(PARI) u=1; for(n=2, 100, v=if(isprime(u), u+1, 2*u); u=v; print1(v, ", "))
