COMMENTS

When n is odd the polynomial produces even values, so it is trivially composite. When n ends in 2, 4, 6, or 8 then n^12 ends in 6, so the polynomial produces values ending in 5, again composite. Hence all the values in this sequence are divisible by 10. - Dmitry Kamenetsky, Nov 08 2016

By Fermat's Little Theorem the polynomial is divisible by 2, 3, 5, 7 and 13 when n is not divisible by these primes. Hence all the values in the sequence are divisible by the product of these primes, 2730. - Chun Lok Yiu, Mar 14, 2022
