Every prime (with the exception of 3) can be expressed as 3*k+1 or 3*k-1. - César Aguilera, Apr 13 2013
The associated prime A002476(n) has a unique representation as x^2 + x*y - 2*y^2 = (x + 2*y)*(x-y) with positive integers, namely (x(n), y(n)) = (a(n) + 1, a(n)). See the N. J. A. Sloane, May 31 2014, comment on A002476. - Wolfdieter Lang, Feb 09 2016
For all elements of this sequence there are no (x,y) positive integers such that a(n) = 3*x*y + x + y or a(n) = 3*x*y - x - y. - Pedro Caceres, Jan 28 2021
