%N Smallest perfect power b^e such that b^e+prime(n) is also a perfect power.
%C a(n) = 1 if and only if prime(n) is a Mersenne prime (A000668). Thus A059305 gives the values of n for which a(n) = 1.
%C For all n, a(n) exists.
%C Subsequence of A103953.
%C For n > 1, a(n) <= ((prime(n)-1)/2)^2, since ((p-1)/2)^2 + p = ((p+1)/2)^2. - _Jens Kruse Andersen_, Aug 10 2014
