%N Numbers n such that 5^n-6 is prime.

%C Numbers corresponding to the a(n) for n>11 are probable prime.

%C If Q is a 4-perfect number and gcd(Q, 5*(5^a(n)-6))=1 then m=5^(a(n)-1)

%C (5^a(n)-6)*Q is a solution of the equation sigma(x)=5(x+Q)(see comment lines of the sequence A058959). 142990848 is the smallest 4-perfect number m such that 5 doesn't divide m.
