Primes of the form F(k+3)+L(k+2), where F(k) and L(k) are the k-th Fibonacci number and Lucas number, respectively. This formula also gives that 3,2 and 5 are primes of the form F(k+3)+L(k+2), with k=-2, k=-1, k=0, respectively. - Rigoberto Florez, Jul 31 2022
Are there infinitely many primes of the form F(k+3)+L(k+2)? There are 47 primes of this form for k <= 80000. There are no such primes for 64000 <= k <= 80000. - Rigoberto Florez, Feb 26 2023
a(29) has 948 digits; a(30) has 1253 digits. - Harvey P. Dale, Jan 13 2013

EXAMPLE
a(1) = 7 = 0+1+1+2+3 is prime;
a(2) = 19 = 1+2+3+5+8 is prime;
a(3) = 31 = 2+3+5+8+13 is prime, etc.
