Comments

Prime terms are in A249759.

Corresponding values of sigma(n-1): 3, 7, 13, 31, 31, 127, 307, 1093, ...

Conjecture: supersequence of A256438.

Conjecture: 31 is the only prime p such that p = sigma(x-1) = sigma(y-1) for distinct numbers x and y; 31 = sigma(17-1) = sigma(26-1).

Supersequence of A270414 and A270415.

Formula

a(n) = A023194(n) + 1.

Example

17 is in the sequence because sigma(17-1) = sigma(16) = 31 (prime).
