Comments

Except for n = 2, there are no Gaussian primes at an even taxicab distance from the origin. All terms are multiples of 4. See A218859 for this sequence divided by 4.
The arithmetic derivative of Gaussian primes is either 1, -1, I, or -I.

Examples

			In the taxicab distance, the four Gaussian primes closest to the origin are 1+I, -1+I, -i-I, and 1-I. The 12 at taxicab distance 3 are the four reflections of 3, 2+I, and 1+2I.

Comments

Except for 1+I, 1-I, -1+I, and -1-I, all Gaussian primes are an odd taxicab distance from the origin. Primes on the x- and y-axis are counted only once. That is, although p and p*I are Gaussian primes (for primes p in A002145), we count only p as being a first-quadrant Gaussian prime.
