A054520 Let S = {1,5,9,13,..., 4n+1, ...} and call p in S an S-prime if p>1 and the only divisors of p in S are 1 and p; sequence gives elements of S that are not S-primes.

Comments

The set S is a standard example of a set where unique factorization does not hold.

With the exception A054520(1)=1, numbers of the form 4*(m + n + 4 m n)+1 (m,n>0). No such number can be prime because 4*(m + n + 4 m n)+1=(4m+1)(4n+1). - Artur Jasinski, Sep 22 2008
