COMMENTS

I think the list is complete since I have flow-charted many of the possibilites and I am in the process of checking in the range 10^11 < p < 10^12 but it will take a while.

EXAMPLE

a(11)=2099 since the pattern "*2*0*9*9*" does not occur in any previously found prime of the form 4n+3. Assuming all previous members of the list have been similarly recursively constructed, then 2099 is the next prime in the list. The basic rule is: if no substring of p matches any previously found prime, add p to the list. The basic theorem of minimal sets says that this process will terminate, that is, the minimal set is always finite.

MAPLE
