%N Smallest prime of the form k^p - (k-1)^p, where p = prime(n).

%C All Mersenne primes of form 2^p-1 = {3, 7, 31, 127, 8191,...} belong to a(n). Mersenne prime A000668(n) = a(k) when prime(k) = A000043(n). Last digit is always 1 for Nexus numbers of form n^p - (n-1)^p with p = {5, 13, 17, 29, 37, 41, 53, 61, 73, 89, 97, 101,...} = A004144(n) Pythagorean primes: primes of form 4n+1.
