Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Primes of the form 12k+5 generated recursively. Initial prime is 5. General term is a(n) = Min {p is prime; p divides 4+Q^2; p == 5 (mod 12)}, where Q is the product of previous terms in the sequence.
%C Since Q is odd, all prime divisors of 4+Q^2 are congruent to 1 modulo 4.
%C At least one prime divisor of 4+Q^2 is congruent to 2 modulo 3 and hence to 5 modulo 12.
%C The first two terms are the same as those of A057208.
