COMMENTS
k=2m, since for odd k, 8^k + 7 is divisible by 3.
Prime numbers p in A144242 such that p-1 is the fourth a-gonal and seventh b-gonal number for some a and b. Namely, a = (8^k+14)/6 and b = (8^k + 41)/21.
This sequence appears to be a subset of A144313.
The next term has 178 digits. - Harvey P. Dale, Sep 03 2015
EXAMPLE
71 - 1 = 70 is the fourth triskaidecagonal number and seventh pentagonal number.
