%N (Odd primes - 1)/2.
%C Or, numbers n such that 2n+1 is prime.
%C Also numbers not of the form 2xy+x+y. - Jose Brox (tautocrona(AT)terra.es), Dec 29 2005
%C This sequence arises if you factor the product of a large number of the first odd numbers into the form 3^n(3)5^n(5)7^n(7)11^n(11)... Then n(3)/n(5) = 2, n(3)/n(7) = 3, n(3)/n(11) = 5,... . - Andrzej Staruszkiewicz (astar(AT)th.if.uj.edu.pl), May 31 2007
%C Kohen shows: A king invites n couples to sit around a round table with 2n+1 seats. For each couple, the king decides a prescribed distance d between 1 and n which the two spouses have to be seated from each other (distance d means that they are separated by exactly d-1 chairs). We will show that there is a solution for every choice of the distances if and only if 2n+1 is a prime number [i.e. iff n is in A005097], using a theorem known as Combinatorial Nullstellensatz. [From _Jonathan Vos Post_, Jun 14 2010]
%C Starting from 6, positions at which new primes are seen for Goldbach partitions Eg 31 is first seen at 34 from 31+3, so position=1+(34-6)/2=15 [From _Bill McEachen_, Jul 05 2010]
%C Perfect error-correcting Lee codes of word length n over Z: it is conjectured that these always exist when 2n+1 is a prime, as mentioned in Horak [Jonathan Vos Post, Sep 19 2011].
%C Also solutions to: A000010(2*n+1) = n * A000005(2*n+1). - _Enrique Pérez Herrero_, Jun 07 2012
%C Solutions of the equation (2*n+1)'=1, where n' is the arithmetic derivative of n. [_Paolo P. Lava_, Nov 15 2012]
