If n == 1 (mod 3), then for every positive integer k, 2*n^k+1 is divisible by 3 and cannot be prime (unless n=1). Thus we restrict the domain of this sequence to A007494 (n which is not in the form 3j+1).
Conjecture: a(n) is defined for all n.
a(145) > 200000, a(146) .. a(156) = {1, 1, 66, 1, 4, 3, 1, 1, 1, 1, 6}, a(157) > 100000, a(158) .. a(180) = {2, 1, 2, 11, 1, 1, 3, 321, 1, 1, 3, 1, 2, 12183, 5, 1, 1, 957, 2, 3, 16, 3, 1}.
a(n) = 1 if and only if n is in A144769.
