COMMENTS

Semiprime equivalent of R.G.Wilson's primeth recurrence: A007097.

EXAMPLE

a(1) = semiprime(1) = 4.

a(2) = semiprime(semiprime(1)) = semiprime(4) = 10.

a(3) = semiprime(semiprime(semiprime(1))) = semiprime(semiprime(4)) = semiprime(10) = 26.

MATHEMATICA

SemiPrimePi[n_] := Sum[PrimePi[n/Prime@i] - i + 1, {i, PrimePi@ Sqrt@n}]; SemiPrime[n_] := Block[{e = Floor[Log[2, n] + 1], a, b}, a = 2^e; Do[b = 2^p; While[SemiPrimePi@a < n, a = a + b]; a = a - b/2, {p, e, 0, -1}]; a + b/2]; NestList[SemiPrime@# &, 1, 18] - from Robert G.
