A108972 a(1) = 1; for n > 1, a(n) is the least k > a(n-1) such that a(n) + a(n-1) is square and a(n) - a(n-1) is prime. 0

%N a(1) = 1; for n > 1, a(n) is the least k > a(n-1) such that a(n) + a(n-1) is square and a(n) - a(n-1) is prime.

%e Given a(5) = 30, the least k > 30 such that k + 30 is square and k - 30 is prime is 91 (91 + 30 = 121 = 11^2; and 91 - 30 = 61 is prime), so a(6) = 91.

%t a = 1; Print[a]; Do[k = a + 1; While[ !(PrimeQ[k - a] && IntegerQ[Sqrt[k + a]]), k++ ]; a = k; Print[a], {n, 1, 30}]
