COMMENTS

This sequence consists of the union of an infinite number of arithmetic progressions. Let p be an irregular prime and let {m1,m2,...} be even numbers < p(p-1) such that p^2 | N(mi). Then each (p,mi) is a second-order irregular pair. This leads to the arithmetic progression n=mi+p(p-1)k for each i and for k=0,1,2,3... If we restrict the sequence to those pairs with mi < 10000, we find that only the pairs (37,284), (59,914), (67,3292), (101,5768), (103,228), (157,6302) and (271,1434) contribute terms to this sequence.
