COMMENTS
Let {Zs(m, 10, 1)} be the Zsigmondy numbers for a = 10, b = 1: Zs(m, 10, 1) is the greatest divisor of 10^m - 1^m that is coprime to 10^r - 1^r for all positive integers r < m. Then this sequence gives m such that Zs(m, 10, 1) is a prime power (e.g., Zs(1, 10, 1) = 9 = 3^2, Zs(2, 10, 1) = 11, Zs(3, 10, 1) = 37, Zs(4, 10, 1) = 101). It is very likely that Zs(m, 10, 1) is prime if m > 1 is in this sequence (note that the Mathematica and PARI programs below are based on this assumption). - Jianing Song, Aug 12 2020
