%C From _Jianing Song_, Jan 30 2019: (Start)

%C a(n) is necessarily prime. Otherwise, if a(n) is not prime, we have (D/p) = 0 or 1 for all prime divisors p of a(n), so (D/a(n)) must be 0 or 1 too, a contradiction.

%C a(n) is the least inert prime in the real quadratic field with discriminant D, D = A003658(n). (End)

%F With D = A003658(n): Mollin conjectured, and Granville, Mollin, & Williams proved, that for n > 1128, a(n) <= D^0.5 / 2. Treviño proves that for n > 484, a(n) <= D^0.45. Asymptotically the best known upper bound for the exponent is less than 0.16 when D is prime and 1/4 + epsilon (for any epsilon > 0) for general D. - _Charles R Greathouse IV_, Apr 23 2014 (corrected by _Enrique Treviño_, Mar 18 2022)

%F a(n) = A092419(A003658(n) - floor(sqrt(A003658(n))), n >= 2. - _Jianing Song_, Jan 30 2019

%e A003658(3) = 8, (8/3) = -1 and (8/2) = 0, so a(3) = 3.
