COMMENTS
The zero terms are of a special interest. Indeed, since for any odd prime p, A137576((p-1)/2)=p, then it is natural to call "overpseudoprimes" those Poulet pseudoprimes A001567(n) for which a(n)=0.
Theorem. A squarefree composite number m = p_1*p_2*...*p_k is an overpseudoprime if and only if A002326((p_1-1)/2) = A002326((p_2-1)/2) = ... = A002326((p_k-1)/2). Moreover, every overpseudoprime is in A001262.
Note that in A001262 there exist terms which are not squarefree. The first is A001262(52) = 1194649 = 1093^2.
It can be shown that if an overpseudoprime is not a multiple of the square of a Wieferich prime (see A001220) then it is squarefree. Also all squares of Wieferich primes are overpseudoprimes.
