FORMULA
Numbers n such that A049084(n)>0 and A049084(A007090(n))>0. - R. J. Mathar, Jun 15 2007
EXAMPLE
The decimal prime 29 in base 4 is 131 which is again a prime in base 10.
E.g., 509_10 = 13331_4 is prime but also 13331_10.
MAPLE
A007090 := proc(n) local b4digs ; b4digs := convert(n, base, 4) ; add( op(i, b4digs)*10^(i-1), i=1..nops(b4digs)) ; end: isA065722 := proc(n) local rebase ; if isprime(n) then rebase := A007090(n) ; RETURN(isprime(rebase)) ; else RETURN(false) ; fi ; end: for n from 1 to 1000 do p := ithprime(n) : if isA065722(p) then printf("%d, ", p) ; fi : od : # R.
