Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Primes with a binary weight greater than or equal to the binary weight of their squares.

%C Primes p such that A000120(p) = A000120(p^2): 2, 3, 7, 31, 79, 127, 157, 317, 379, 751, 1087, 1151, 1277, 1279,...

%F Primes p such that A000120(p) >= A000120(p^2).

%e 2 is in this sequence because 2 is 10 in binary representation, and it has as many 1s as its square 4, which is 100 in binary.
