COMMENTS
Any positive multiple of a member of this sequence is also a member. Primitive elements are in A124378. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Oct 28 2006
The Mathematica code for testing the number n works by generating the Lucas sequence (mod n) and stopping when either n divides a term of the sequence or the entire sequence (mod n) has been generated. Hence, up to A106291(n) terms need to be computed. - T. D. Noe, Mar 20 2013
