A088817 Numbers k such that Cyclotomic(2k,k) is prime. 3

%S 1,2,3,4,5,9,17,36,157,245,352,3977

%N Numbers k such that Cyclotomic(2k,k) is prime.

%C This is a generalization of A056826. Note that (n^n+1)/(n+1) = cyclotomic(2n,n) when n is prime. These are probable primes for n > 352. No others < 4700.

%C All terms of this sequence that are greater than 3 are congruent to 0 or 1 mod 4. In general, if k = s^2*t where t is squarefree and t == 2, 3 (mod 4), then Cyclotomic(2k,t*x^2) is the product of two polynomials. See the Wikipedia link below. - _Jianing Song_, Sep 25 2019
