COMMENTS

n^6+n^3+1 is the cyclotomic polynomial Phi(9,n). Damianou, p.4, claims that there is strong experimental evidence that a(n) is prime for infinitely many values of n. Damianou gives a formula that precisely determines the cyclotomic factors of x^2n + x^n + 1, applicable to a(n) = n^6 + n^3 + 1. Jonathan Vos Post, Jan 06 2011
