 While proving a few such important sequences infinite might help us triangulate on the keys - the k-tuples, and the mersennes.

 Is that blind faith, or do you have some reason for this belief?
I'll just say here it's not blind and it's not faith.

Forgive me my keys.

I suppose this might be considered more evidence, huh?

Just checking.

(Might it set some record in that regard -- highest ratio of initial term to average spacing of next n terms, for n = 3?) I'd be glad to submit it, but I think it should be one of you guys. How about generalizing to other bases?

I'm also curious about how these (squares and cubes) results compare to first powers (sum of primes themselves). Since these series depend on the properties of a number in base ten, they could be considered recreational -- interesting but not necessarily useful. Still, perhaps the sequence of sequences can someday be used to derive some important number theoretic fact. That's one of the purposes of the oeis.
Yes indeed.

 2019-12-12, 19:16 #181 yae9911     "Hugo" Jul 2019 Germany 111112 Posts Hardly almost 9 years have passed, and already the topic comes out again. When I searched for entries of b2 in the OEIS, I came across the sequence A174862, which contained a link to this discussion. But with the two variants p3 and pp not much more happened, and I have now taken the liberty to close these gaps in OEIS with new entries A330308 and A330309. It is remarkable how quickly Giovanni Resta found two more terms in the pp sequence A330309, but Giovanni is notorious for such amazing results.

Can't believe it has been that long since this happened. Thanks for submitting the p3 sequence, that must have been overlooked before. Also glad you are having fun with variants. Looking at the timing of things, it can't have been more than a day or so for additional terms to have been added which makes Giovanni's additions very impressive indeed.

 2019-12-12, 22:31 #184 yae9911     "Hugo" Jul 2019 Germany 1F16 Posts If someone has such an idea, it is best if he himself submits this as a proposal for a new sequence. I'm not going to take this job off your hands for now. At best, I can help with the procedure of how to submit new entries. Opinions about whether something is accepted or rejected differ widely. I do not presume to decide whether this deserves a new entry in the OEIS database. This decision is made jointly by the team of editors.
