Comments

With i being the imaginary unit, the numbers m + ni and m - ni are Gaussian primes. - Alonso del Arte, Feb 07 2011

All terms after the first are congruent to 1 (mod 4). - Carmine Suriano, Mar 30 2011

Any value can occur at most once (a consequence of Alonso del Arte's comment plus unique factorization in the Gaussian integers). - Robert Israel, Aug 19 2014

Smallest prime of the form (x^2 + y^2)/2 such that |x| + |y| = 2n. Note: |x| = n - m and |y| = n + m. - Thomas Ordowski and Altug Alkan, Jan 13 2017

Formula

a(n) = n^2 + A069003(n)^2. - Thomas Ordowski, Aug 19 2014

Maple

for n from 1 to 100 do m := 1:while(not isprime(n^2+m^2)) do m := m+1; end do:a[n] := n^2+m^2:end do:q := seq(a[i], i=1..100);
