COMMENTS
Numbers k such that the cyclotomic polynomial Phi(k,x) is reducible over Zp for all primes p. Harrison shows that this is equivalent to k > 2 and the discriminant of Phi(k,x), A004124(k), being a square. - T. D. Noe, Nov 06 2007
The multiplicative group modulo k is non-cyclic. See the complement A033948. - Wolfdieter Lang, Mar 14 2012. See A281854 for the groups. - Wolfdieter Lang, Feb 04 2017
Numbers k with the property that there exists a positive integer m with 1 < m < k-1 and m^2 == 1 (mod k). - Reinhard Muehlfeld, May 27 2014
Also, numbers k for which A000010(k) > A002322(k), or equivalently A034380(k) > 1. - Ivan Neretin, Mar 28 2015
Numbers k of the form a + b + 2*sqrt(a*b + 1) for positive integers a,b such that a*b + 1 is a square. Proof: If 1 < m < k - 1 and m^2 == 1 (mod k), take a = (m^2 - 1)/k and b = ((k - m)^2 - 1)/k. Conversely, if k = a + b + 2*sqrt(a*b + 1), take m = a + sqrt(a*b + 1). - Tor Gunston, Apr 24 2021
