COMMENTS
| Sequence A028372 considers primes with this property, but allowing for nonzero a,b (which obviously is irrelevant for n>2). Up to n=13, the terms of the present sequence are prime without imposing it explicitely and thus coincide with A028372 except for n=2.
a(n) > 10^9 for n >= 47. [From Donovan Johnson (donovan.johnson(AT)yahoo.com), Sep 29 2009]

EXAMPLE
| a(1) = 2 = 1^2 + 1^2 is the least number of the sequence A000404 (sum of positive squares). a(2) = 17 = 1^2 + 4^2 = 3^2 + 2*2^2 is the least number in sequence A000404 to be in sequence A154777 (a^2+2b^2)as well. a(3) = 73 = 3^2 + 8^2 = 1^2 + 2*6^2 = 5^2 + 3*4^2 is the least number in the intersection of sequences A000404, A154777 and A092572 (a^2+3b^2).
