COMMENTS
tau(k) = A000005(k) = the number of divisors of k.
Conjecture: prime terms are in A249759: 3, 5, 17, 65537, ...
Supersequence of A256438 and A249759. Subsequence of {A009087(n) + 1}.

FORMULA
a(n) = A061286(n) + 1.
sigma(a(n)-1) = A001348(n), i.e., Mersenne numbers.
tau(a(n)-1) = A000040(n), i.e., all primes; a(n) = the smallest odd number k such that tau(a(n)-1) = prime(n) = A000040(n).
EXAMPLE
Odd number 65 is in the sequence because tau(64) = 7 (prime).
PROG
(Magma) [n: n in[2..10000000] | IsOdd(n) and IsPrime(NumberOfDivisors(n-1))]
(PARI) isok(n) = (n % 2) && isprime(numdiv(n-1)); \\ Michel Marcus, Nov 27 2016
