%N Smallest k such that p(n)^3 + k is prime where p(n) is the n-th prime.

%e p(1)=2, 2^3 = 8. for even k, 2^r + k is even and thus not prime, so we only need consider odd k.
%e for k = 1: 8 + 1 = 9, which is 3^2 and not prime.
%e for k = 3: 8 + 3 = 11, which is prime, so 3 is the smallest number that can be added to 8 to make a new prime.
%e Hence a(1) = 3.
