For n > 1, smallest prime of the form ((p-1)^prime(n)+1)/p, where p is prime; the corresponding primes p are A237115(n) = 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 691, 3, 17, ... and the corresponding semiprimes (p-1)^prime(n)+1 are A237114(n) = 9, 33, 129, 2049, 8193, 131073, 524289, 8388609, ... .
It appears that a(n) == 1 (mod prime(n)), for all n <> 2. See 4th comment in A237114.

EXAMPLE
|
Prime(1)=2 and the smallest semiprime of the form k^2+1 is 3^2+1 = 10 = 2*5, so a(1) = 5.
Prime(2)=3 and the smallest semiprime of the form k^3+1 is 2^3+1 = 9 = 3*3, so a(2) = 3.
