Test for pair of odd primes $(p, 2p^2-1)$
Let $a(n)$ be A106483 (i.e., primes $p$ such that $2p^2-1$ is also prime).
Let $b(n)$ be an integer sequence such that $b(n) = B$ after the whole transformation where we start with $A = n$, $B = 1$, $...

Not a twin prime pair test using $\gcd$ only
Let $m$ be an odd positive integer such that $m=2k+1$, $k\in\mathbb{N}$.
Let $v$ be a vector of $n$ positive integers. Let $v(i)$ be the $i$-th element of the vector. Then we start with $v(i)=m(i+1)-2$...

Word complexity of primes mod 4
For an infinite binary word $w$, the word complexity $f_w(n)$ is defined as the number of different subwords of length $n$. The asymptotic behavior of this function is an important parameter of the ...

A square-squareroot integer race sequence involving primes
I wonder what is the expected behavior of this process?
Let
$f^2_{\mathrm{next}}(n) =$ the next prime after $n^2$.
$g_{\mathrm{sqrt}}(n) = \lfloor \sqrt{n} \rfloor$.
Now iterate as follows, ...
