Comments

Prime numbers n such that cos(2*Pi/n) is an algebraic number of a 3-smooth degree, but not a 2-smooth degree. - Artur Jasinski, Dec 13 2006

From Antonio M. Oller-Marcén, Sep 24 2009: (Start)

In this case gcd(a,b) is a power of 2.

A regular polygon of n sides is constructible by paper folding if and only if n=2^r3^sp_1...p_t with p_i being distinct primes of this kind. (End)

Primes in A005109 but not in A092506. - R. J. Mathar, Sep 28 2012

Conjecture: these are the only solutions >=7 to the equation A000010(x) + A000010(x-1) = floor((4*x-3)/3). - Benoit Cloitre, Mar 02 2018

These are also called Pierpont primes. - Harvey P. Dale, Apr 13 2019

Formula

Primes of the form 1 + A033845(n).

Maple

N:= 10^10: # to get all terms <= N+1
sort(select(isprime, [seq(seq(1+2^a*3^b, a=1..ilog2(N/3^b)), b=1..floor(log[3](N)))])); # Robert Israel, Mar 02 2018
