Obviously b(n) = 100^n - 10^n + 1 = (91, 9901, 999001, 99990001, ...) is a subsequence. Are { b(2), b(4), b(6), b(8) } the only terms of this sequence that are prime? - M. F. Hasler, Mar 30 2008. Answer: The smallest prime in this sequence that is not of the form b(n) is A054216(155) = 811451682377384625400019885321 [Max Alekseyev, Oct 08 2008]. See A145381 for further prime terms.
Other subsequences are c(n) = ( 10^(6n) - 2*10^(5n) - 10^(3n) - 2*10^n + 1 )/3 (n>=2), d(n) = (33/101)*(100^(404n+71)+1)+10^(404n+71) (n>=0) and e(n) = (33/101)*(100^(404n-71)+1)+10^(404n-71) (n>=1). Primes among these include c(10), c(14) and d(0). - M. F. Hasler, Oct 09 2008
A positive integer m is in this sequence if and only if m^2 == -1 (mod 10^k + 1) where k is the number of decimal digits in m. Note that k cannot be odd, since in this case 11 divides 10^k + 1 while -1 is not a square modulo 11. - Max Alekseyev, Oct 09 2008

			'8242' + '8242-1' gives 82428241 which is 9079^2.
Leading zeros are not allowed, which is why c(1)=266327 is not in this sequence although c(1)^2 = 070930 070929.
