%N Smallest b > 1 such that p = prime(n) satisfies b^(p-1) == 1 (mod p^p).
%C a(n) is the element in row prime(n), column n of the table in A257833.
%C Is the sequence always nondecreasing, or stronger, is it always increasing?
%C For odd primes p, if c is a primitive root mod p^p then b == c^(p^(p-1)) (mod p^p) satisfies this. Thus a(n) < prime(n)^prime(n) for n > 1. - _Robert Israel_, Jan 30 2017
