Comments

There are no prime hexagonal numbers. The n-th hexagonal number A000384(n) = n*(2*n-1) is semiprime iff both n and 2*n-1 are prime iff A000384(n) is an element of A001358 iff n is an element of A005382.

Formula

n such that hexagonal number A000384(n) is an element of A014612. n such that A001222(A000384(n)) = 3. n such that A001222(n*(2*n-1)) = 3.

Example

a(1) = 4 because HexagonalNumber(4) = H(4) = 4*(2*4-1) = 28 = 2^2 * 7 is a 3-almost prime.
a(2) = 5 because H(5) = 5*(2*5-1) = 45 = 3^2 * 5 is a 3-almost prime.
a(3) = 6 because H(6) = 6*(2*6-1) = 66 = 2 * 3 * 11 is a 3-almost prime.

Maple
