Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Integers p*q*r such that p*q and q*r are both golden semiprimes (A108540). Integers p*q*r such that p = A108541(j), q = A108542(j) = A108541(k) and r = A108542(k).
%C Golden 3-almost primes.
%C Volumes of bricks (rectangular parallelepipeds) each of whose faces has golden semiprime area. How long a chain is possible of the form p(1) * p(2) * p(3) * ... * p(n) where each successive pair of values are factors of a golden semiprime? That is, if Zumkeller's golden semiprimes are the 2-dimensional case and the present sequence is the 3-dimensional case, is there a maximum n for an n-dimensional case?
