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 Numbers n such that the Phi_n(2) is the product of exactly two primes and is divisible by 2n+1.

%C Here Phi_n is the n-th cyclotomic polynomial.

%C Is this sequence infinite?

%C Phi_n(2)/(2n+1) is only a probable prime for n > 16664.

%C a(33) > 2000000.

%C Subsequence of A005097 (2 * a(n) + 1 are all primes)

%C Subsequence of A081858.

%C 2 * a(n) + 1 are in A115591.

%C Primes in this sequence are listed in A239638.

%C A085021(a(n)) = 2.

%C All a(n) are congruent to 0 or 3 (mod 4). (A014601)

%C All a(n) are congruent to 0 or 2 (mod 3). (A007494)

%C Except the term 20, all even numbers in this sequence are divisible by 8.

%e Phi_11(2) = 23 * 89 and 23 = 2 * 11 + 1, so 11 is in this sequence.

%e Phi_35(2) = 71 * 122921 and 71 = 2 * 35 + 1, so 35 is in this sequence.

%e Phi_48(2) = 97 * 673 and 97 = 2 * 48 + 1, so 48 is in this sequence.
