A243969 Integers n not of form 3m+2 such that for any integer k > 0, n*10^k+1 has a divisor in the set { 7, 11, 13, 37 }. 6

%N Integers n not of form 3m+2 such that for any integer k > 0, n*10^k+1 has a divisor in the set { 7, 11, 13, 37 }.

%C For n>24 a(n) = a(n-24) + 111111, the first 24 values are in the data.

%C If n is of form 3m+2 then n*10^k+1 is always divisible by 3. The sequence is a base 10 variant of provable Sierpiński numbers (A076336). It is currently unknown whether 7666*10^k+1 is always composite but based on heuristics it probably has large undiscovered primes. 7666 is the only remaining base 10 Sierpiński candidate below 9175. - _Jens Kruse Andersen_, Jul 09 2014

%H A. Brunner, C. Caldwell, D. Krywaruczensko, C. Lownsdale, <a href="http://www.utm.edu/staff/caldwell/preprints/2to100.pdf">Generalized Sierpiński Numbers Base b</a> (has a typo in covering set for 9175, base 10. - _Jens Kruse Andersen_, Jul 09 2014)

%F For n>24 a(n) = a(n-24) + 111111.

%e 9175*10^k+1 is divisible by 11 for k of form 6m+1, 6m+3, 6m+5, by 37 for k of form 6m (and also 6m+3), by 13 for 6m+2, and by 7 for 6m+4. This covers all k. {7, 11, 13, 37} is called a covering set. - _Jens Kruse Andersen_, Jul 09 2014
