%N a(n) = smallest number k such that both k - n^2 and k + n^2 are primes.
%C Note that a(11) = 150 and a(12) = 149. Up to n = 10^6, this is the only case where a(n) > a(n+1). What about general case of a(n) < a(n+1)?
%C First differences are almost linear with n hence the only case with a(n) > a(n+1) is n = 11. - _Zak Seidov_, May 19 2014

%e a(11) = 150 because both 150 - 11^2 = 29 and 150 + 11^2 = 271 are primes.
