These are the primes in A045575, numbers of the form x^y - y^x, for x,y > 1. This includes all primes from A122735, smallest prime of the form (n^k - k^n) for k>1.
If y=1 was allowed, any prime p could be obtained for x=p+1. This motivates to consider sequence A243100 of primes of the form x^(y+1)-y^x. - M. F. Hasler, Aug 19 2014

Examples

			The primes 6102977801 and 1490116119372884249 are of the form 5^y-y^5 (for y=14 and y=26) and therefore members of this sequence. The next larger primes of this form would have y > 4500 and would be much too large to be included. - _M. F. Hasler_, Aug 19 2014

It is believed that for all n > 4 and not in A097764, a(n) > 0.
a(n+1) = 1 if and only if n is prime.
If a(n) > 0 then a(n) and n are coprime.
If n is in the sequence A097764, then a(n) = 0 or 1 since n^k-k^n is factorable.
33^2570 - 2570^33 is a probable prime, so a(33) is probably 2570. - Jon E. Schoenfield, Mar 20 2014
Unknown a(n) values checked for k <= 10000 using PFGW. a(97) = 6006 found by Donovan Johnson in 2005. The Lifchitz link shows some large candidates for larger n but a smaller k exists in many of those cases. - Jens Kruse Andersen, Aug 13 2014
Unknown a(n) values checked for k <= 15000 using PFGW.

Examples

			2^1-1^2 = 1 is not prime. 2^2-2^2 = 0 is not prime. 2^3-3^2 = -1 is not prime. 2^4-4^2 = 0 is not prime. 2^5-5^2 = 7 is prime. So a(2) = 5.
