%N Composite numbers n such that Sum_{k = 0..n} (-1)^k * C(n,k) * C(2*n,k) == -1 (mod n^3) (see A234839).

%C A234839(p) == -1 (mod p^3) for all primes >= 5. But some composites also satisfy this property. They are the object of this sequence.

%C It appears that these composite are semiprimes with one factor always 2 or 5. See "3. Composite solutions of (1.5)" section in Chamberland et al. link.

%o (PARI) isok(n) = Mod(sum(k=0, n, (-1)^k*binomial(n,k)*binomial(2*n,k)), n^3) == Mod(-1, n^3);
