%N Indices of prime Lucas numbers.
%C Some of the larger entries may only correspond to probable primes.
%C Since (as noted under A000032) L(n) divides L(mn) whenever m is odd, L(n) cannot be prime unless n is itself prime, or else n contains no odd divisor, i.e., is a power of 2. Potential divisors of L(n) must satisfy certain linear forms dependent upon the parity of n, as shown in Vajda (1989), p. 82 (with a slight typographical error in the proof). - _John Blythe Dobson_, Oct 22 2007
%C Powers of 2 in this sequence are 2, 4, 8, 16; for 5 <= m <= 24, L(2^m) is composite; no factors of L(2^m) are known for m = 25, 26, 27, 29, 32, 33... (See Link section). - _Serge Batalov_, May 30 2017
%C 2316773 is in the sequence, but its position is not yet defined. L(2316773) is a 484177-digit PRP. - _Serge Batalov_, Jun 11 2017
