Conjectures: (i) For all k in this sequence, A047994(k) >= A344005(k).

(ii) Equals composite numbers with {18, 2*p (p prime), p^i (p primes, i >= 2} deleted.

The second conjecture asserts that this is equal to A265128 with {0, 1, 18} deleted.

I believe I have a proof of both conjectures, although I have not yet written out all the details.

Numbers k that are in A265128, but do not appear here are: 1, 18, 50, 54, 98, 162, 242, 250, 338, 486, 578, 686, ... probably given by {1} UNION A354929. Hence conjecture: the sequence consists of numbers that are neither a power of prime, or 2 * power of prime. - Antti Karttunen, Jun 14 2022

Is this the set of all k such that Phi_k(-1) = Phi_k(0) = Phi_k(1) where Phi_k denotes the k-th cyclotomic polynomial? - Jeppe Stig Nielsen, Jun 26 2023
