COMMENTS
a(1) starts sequence A023200; a(2) starts sequence A049492. (I've searched up to 2000000 but haven't yet found the terms from a(20) onward.)
EXAMPLE
a(5) = 7.
7+4(1^2) = 7+4(1) = 7+4 = 11 which is prime.
7+4(2^2) = 7+4(4) = 7+16 = 23 which is prime.
7+4(3^2) = 7+4(9) = 7+36 = 43 which is prime.
7+4(4^2) = 7+4(16) = 7+64 = 71 which is prime.
7+4(5^2) = 7+4(25) = 7+100 = 107 which is prime.
