Comments

a(1) = 1 and for n>1: a(n) = smallest m not occurring earlier such that m^2 + a(n-1)^2 is a prime; the primes are in A100209.

Note the same parity of a(n) and n for all terms. [Zak Seidov, Apr 27 2011]

Subsequence s(1..m) is a permutation of the natural numbers 1..m only for m=1,2,3. [Zak Seidov, Apr 28 2011]

All filtering primes (A100209) are distinct because primes of the form 4k+1 have a unique representation as the sum of two squares. [Zak Seidov, Apr 28 2011]

Formula

a(A100211(n)) = A100211(a(n)) = n.

a(n) = sqrt(A073658(n)).

a(n)^2 + a(n+1)^2 = A100209(n).

Mathematica

nn = 100; unused = Range[2, nn]; t = {1}; While[k = 0; While[k++; k <= Length[unused] && ! PrimeQ[t[[-1]]^2 + unused[[k]]^2]]; k <= Length[unused], AppendTo[t, unused[[k]]]; unused = Delete[unused, k]]; t (* T. D. Noe, Apr 27 2011 *)
