%N Lesser prime factor of the smallest semiprime of the form k^prime(n)+1, or 0 if no such semiprime exists.

%C For n > 1, smallest prime p such that ((p-1)^prime(n)+1)/p is prime; the corresponding primes ((p-1)^prime(n)+1)/p are A237116(n) = 3, 11, 43, 683, 2731, 43691, 174763, 2796203, ... and the corresponding semiprimes (p-1)^prime(n)+1 are A237114(n) = 9, 33, 129, 2049, 8193, 131073, 524289, 8388609, ... .

%F a(n) = A237114(n)/A237116(n), for n > 0.

%F (a(n)-1)^prime(n) = A237114(n)-1, for n > 1.

%F a(n) == A237114(n) (mod prime(n)) (for a proof, see A237114).

%F a(n) mod prime(n) = A237117(n), if a(n) > 0.

%e Prime(1)=2 and the smallest semiprime of the form k^2+1 is 3^2+1 = 10 = 2*5, so a(1) = 2.

%e Prime(2)=3 and the smallest semiprime of the form k^3+1 is 2^3+1 = 9 = 3*3, so a(2) = 3.
