COMMENTS

a(n) = 0 if n == 1 (mod 3) and n > 1.

Conjecture: a(n) > 0 otherwise.

FORMULA

a(n) = n^A346149(n) + n + 1 if A346149(n) > 0.

EXAMPLE

a(9) = 739 because 9^3 + 9 + 1 = 739 is prime while 9^2 + 9 + 1 is not.

MAPLE

f:= proc(n) local i;

if n mod 3 = 1 then return 0 fi;

for i from 2 do if isprime(n^i+n+1) then return n^i+n+1 fi od:

end proc:

f(1):= 3:

map(f, [$1..100]);

PROG

(Python)

from sympy import isprime

def a(n):

    if n > 1 and n%3 == 1: return 0

    k = 2

    while not isprime(n**k + n + 1): k += 1

    return n**k + n + 1
