%N Fermat pseudoprimes to base 4.

%C If q and 2q-1 are odd primes, then n=q*(2q-1) is in the sequence. So for n>1, A005382(n)*(2*A005382(n)-1) form a subsequence (cf. A129521). - _Farideh Firoozbakht_, Sep 12 2006

%C Primes q and 2q-1 are a Cunningham chain of the second kind. - _Walter Nissen_, Sep 07 2009

%C Composite numbers n such that 4^(n-1) == 1 (mod n). - _Michel Lagneau_, Feb 18 2012
