%N Smallest prime factor of 10^(2^n) + 1.

%C 10^k+1 can only be prime if k is a power of 2. So far the only known primes of this form are a(0) = 11 and a(1) = 101. [Edited by _M. F. Hasler_, Aug 03 2019]

%C a(n) >= 2^(n+1)+1; we have a(n) = 2^(n+1)+1 for n=3, n=7, and n=15.

%C a(14) > 10^16. - _Max Alekseyev_, Jun 28 2013

%C From the Keller link a(15)-a(20) = 65537, 8257537, 175636481, 639631361, 70254593, 167772161. - _Ray Chandler_, Dec 27 2013

%F a(n) = A038371(2^n). - _M. F. Hasler_, Jul 30 2019

%e For n=2, a(2)=73 since 10^(2^2) + 1 = 10001 = 73 * 137.

%Y Cf. A038371, A000533, A000215, A093179, A102050
