COMMENTS

Mp is prime iff 3^(2^(p(n)-1)+1) is congruent to (-9) Mod Mp. Thus M7 = 127 is prime because 3^65 Mod 127 = 118 (=127-9) while M11 = 2047 is composite because 3^1025 Mod 2047 <> 2038.

FORMULA

a(n) = 3^(2^(p(n)-1)+1) Mod 2^p(n)-1

EXAMPLE

a(5) = 3^(2^(11-1)+1) Mod 2^11-1 = 3^1025 Mod 2047 = 1803
