COMMENTS
Previous Name: Primes found among the denominators of the continued fraction rational approximations to sqrt(2).
See A096650 for the indices. - Jon E. Schoenfield, Jan 25 2017
A056869 is essentially the same sequence. - Jianing Song, Jan 02 2019

FORMULA
a(n) = A000129(A096650(n)). - Jon E. Schoenfield, Jan 25 2017
a(n) = A056869(n-1), n > 1. - Jianing Song, Jan 02 2019
EXAMPLE
a(1) = 2 = A000129(2), a(2) = 5 = A000129(3), a(3) = 29 = A000129(5), etc. - Zak Seidov, Oct 21 2013 [Corrected by Jianing Song, Jan 02 2019]
