A327660 Least number k > n - 2 such that k*n^k + 1 is prime. 1
1, 1, 2, 3, 1242, 91, 34, 17, 12382, 9, 10, 247 (list; graph; refs; listen; history; text; internal format)

COMMENTS
Different version of A240234. Some authors, like Caldwell (link), require that k + 2 > n before they use the term generalized Cullen for a prime of form k*n^k + 1.

EXAMPLE
To find a(9), consider numbers k*9^k + 1 where k > 7. The first time it is prime, is for k = 12382, so a(9) = 12382.
PROG
(PARI) for(b=1, +oo, for(k=b-1, +oo, if(ispseudoprime(k*b^k+1), print1(k, ", "); next(2))))
