COMMENTS

Can three squares with consecutive prime sides prime(i), i=k,..k+2, be contained/morphed in a larger square also with prime sides just slightly greater than required?

The areas are the squares of the prime sides; the total area is their sum prime(k)^2+prime(k+1)^2+prime(k+2)^2,

and pulling the square root is the diagonal of the hosting square. The sequence lists the first, prime(k), if this diagonal (rounded up) is a prime number,

indicating that a rather tight enclosing square with (again) a prime side length can be found.

FORMULA

{A000040(n): ceil(sqrt(A133529(n))) in A000040}. - R. J. Mathar, Jul 10 2011

EXAMPLE

Take 13,17,19 with summed squares 169+289+361=819 = A133529(6). The square root is approximately 28.6 and rounding up to 29 yields a prime, so 13 is placed

in the sequence.
