COMMENTS
Here lucky(n) = n-th lucky number = A000959(n), unlucky(n) = n-th unlucky number = A050505(n), oddprime(n) = n-th odd prime = A065091(n), not_an_oddprime(n) = n-th natural number which is not an odd prime = A065090(n).
FORMULA
a(1) = 1; a(2) = 2; if A010051(n) = 1 [i.e., when n is an (odd) prime] then a(n) = A000959(1+a(A000720(n)-1)), otherwise a(n) = A050505(a(A062298(n))).
As a composition of other permutations:
a(n) = A257726(A257727(n)).
a(n) = A257731(A257730(n)).
PROG
(Scheme, with memoizing definec-macro)
(definec (A257801 n) (cond ((<= n 2) n) ((= 1 (A010051 n)) (A000959 (+ 1 (A257801 (+ -1 (A000720 n)))))) (else (A050505 (A257801 (A062298 n))))))
;; Alternatively, by composing other permutations:
(define (A257801 n) (A257726 (A257727 n)))
