%N Numbers that have a primitive root (the multiplicative group modulo n is cyclic).

%C The sequence consists of 1, 2, 4 and numbers of the form p^i and 2p^i, where p is an odd prime and i >= 1.

%C Sequence gives values of n such that x^2 == 1 (mod n) has no solution with 1 < x < n-1. - _Benoit Cloitre_, Jan 04 2002

%C Gaussian criterion for terms of the sequence: n is in the sequence iff Product_{1<=i<=n-1, gcd(i,n)=1} i == -1 (mod n), see example. - _Vladimir Shevelev_, Jan 11 2011

%C For the criterion used above see the Hardy and Wright reference, Theorem 129. p. 102, a consequence of Bauer's theorem. See also _T. D. Noe_'s comment with the Nagell reference on A060594 and also A160377. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Feb 16 2012

%C Also numbers n such that phi(n) = lambda(n) (or numbers with A034380(n)=1), where phi is A000010, and lambda is Carmichael's lambda: A002322. - _Enrique Pérez Herrero_, Jun 04 2013

%C All values of n>2 are given when there are exactly two solutions for n*j+1 is a square, 0 <= j < n, which are j = {0, n-2}. See Mathematica examples. - _Richard R. Forberg_, Mar 26 2016

%C Numbers n such that the Galois group of the cyclotomic field with the n-th roots of unity is a cyclic group. [Van der Waerden, p. 55, Th. 4.11.; Corwin, 1967] - _N. J. A. Sloane_, Nov 26 2016

%e Gaussian product for n=9 is 1*2*4*5*7*8=2240. Since 2240==-1(mod 9), then 9 is in the sequence. - _Vladimir Shevelev_, Jan 11 2011
