COMMENTS

Of course, 2 is the only true prime here.
Numbers a(n)/2 form the odd terms of A130421. - Max Alekseyev, May 28 2014
a(n) == 2 (mod 4), hence there are no consecutive even numbers in this sequence. The closest two terms below 2*10^15 (as computed by Alekseyev) are a(2) = 161038 and a(3) = 215326 with a(3) - a(2) = 54288. Do smaller gaps exist? - Charles R Greathouse IV, Dec 02 2014
Corollary (Rotkiewicz-Ziemak, 1995): 2(2^p-1)(2^q-1) is a pseudoprime if and only if 2(2^(pq)-1) is a pseudoprime, where p,q are distinct primes. - Thomas Ordowski, Apr 09 2016
Numbers 2k such that 2^(2k-1) == 1 (mod k). - Thomas Ordowski, Nov 22 2016
There exist even pseudoprimes that are not squarefree, with the smallest being 190213279479817426 = 2 * 7 * 79 * 1951 * 3511^2 * 7151 (cf. A295740). - Max Alekseyev, Nov 26 2017
Terms of the form 2^k - 2 corresponds to k in A296104. - Max Alekseyev, Dec 04 2017
