%N Primes of the form n^2 + k such that n^2 - k is also prime, where -n < k < n.

%C Members of a pair (a, b) of primes such that a < b and the distances from a and b to the nearest square above a (or below b) are equal.

%C The only prime of the form n^2 + 1 (A002496) in the sequence is 5.

%C Is this sequence infinite?

%F A prime p is in the sequence if and only if 2*A053187(p)-p is prime.

%e 2^2-1=3, 2^2+1=5, both prime.

%e 8^2-3=61, 8^2+3=67, both prime.

%p g:= proc(t,m) if isprime(m+t) and isprime(m-t) then (m+t,m-t) else NULL fi end proc:

%p `union`(seq(map(g,{$1..n-1},n^2),n=2..100));

%p # if using Maple 11 or earlier, uncomment the next line

%p # sort(convert(%,list));
