%N Primes of the form k*2^(k-1) - 1.

%C Primes in A087323.

%C Corresponding values of k: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 15, 16, 17, 28, 46, 123, ...

%C The values of k-1 are listed in A230769. - _Jeppe Stig Nielsen_, Oct 16 2019

%e 79 is in this sequence because it is prime and for k = 5, k*2^(k-1) - 1 = 5*2^(5-1) - 1 = 79.
