COMMENTS
These minimal integers are always prime. To be clear, the phi function referred to here is Euler's totient function.

EXAMPLE
The first term is 5. phi(5) = 4 and phi(4)=2. 2 is a multiple of the first prime 2. 5 is the lowest such number x where 2 divides phi(phi(x)).
MAPLE
with(numtheory): P:=proc(n) local a, k; a:=ithprime(n);
for k from 1 to 10^3 do if frac(phi(phi(ithprime(k)))/a)=0
then RETURN(ithprime(k)); break; fi; od; end:
seq(P(i), i=1..46); # Paolo P. Lava, Oct 10 2018
