%F From _R. J. Mathar_, Apr 03 2011: (Start)

%F Sum_{n >= 1} 1/a(n)^2 = A175644.

%F Sum_{n >= 1} 1/a(n)^3 = A175645. (End)

%F a(n) = 6*A024899(n) + 1. - _Zak Seidov_, Aug 31 2016

%F From _Vaclav Kotesovec_, May 02 2020: (Start)

%F Product_{k>=1} (1 - 1/a(k)^2) = 1/A175646.

%F Product_{k>=1} (1 + 1/a(k)^2) = A334481.

%F Product_{k>=1} (1 - 1/a(k)^3) = A334478.

%F Product_{k>=1} (1 + 1/a(k)^3) = A334477. (End)

%F Legendre symbol (-3, a(n)) = +1 and (-3, A007528(n)) = -1, for n >= 1. For prime 3 one sets (-3, 3) = 0. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Mar 03 2021

%e Since 6 * 1 + 1 = 7 and 7 is prime, 7 is in the sequence. (Also 7 = 2^2 + 3 * 1^2 = (2 + sqrt(-3))(2 - sqrt(-3)).)

%e Since 6 * 2 + 1 = 13 and 13 is prime, 13 is in the sequence.

%e 17 is prime but it is of the form 6m - 1 rather than 6m + 1, and is therefore not in the sequence.
