COMMENTS

All visible sequence terms give exactly 3 prime factors. The smallest composite of the form p(n)=n^2+n+41 with 4 prime factors occurs for p(1721)=2963603=43*41^3. Smallest n with 4 distinct prime factors: p(2911)=8476873=83*53*47*41, smallest n with 5 prime factors: p(14144)=200066921=47^4*41, smallest n with 5 distinct prime factors: p(38913)=1514260523=173*71*61*47*43.

EXAMPLE

a(1)=420 because 420^2+420+41=176861=71*53*47 is the first n for which p(n)=n^2+n+41 has more than 2 prime factors. For all smaller n p(n) is either prime or semiprime.

CROSSREFS

Cf. A002837 n such that n^2-n+41 is prime, A007634 n such that n^2+n+41 is composite ("is semiprime" would also fit because all visible sequence terms produce semiprimes), A005846 primes of form n^2+n+41, A097823 n^2+n+41 is not squarefree.

Sequence in context: A130737 A187218 A061118 * A069064 A024410 A200521
