Tianxin Cai conjectured that the sequence is infinite.
When p is prime, A001065(2p) = 1 + 2 + p = 3 + p. 2p - A001065(2p) = 2^m iff 2^m + 3 = p. Therefore if A057733 is infinite, Cai's conjecture is correct.
In general, for j = 2, 3, ..., if the number of primes of the form 2^m + 2^j - 1 is infinite, then Cai's conjecture is correct.
When 2^p - 1 is prime, let k = 2^p*(2^p - 1). A001065(k) = 1 + 2 + 2^2 + ... + 2^p + 2^p - 1 + 2(2^p - 1) + 2^2*(2^p - 1) + ... + 2^(p - 1)*(2^p - 1) = 2^(p + 1) - 1 + (2^p - 1)^2 = 2^(2p). k - A001065(k) = -2^p. Therefore if the number of Mersenne primes (A000668) is infinite, then there are infinitely many even k such that k - A001065(k) = -2^p.

EXAMPLE

10 is a term as 10 - A001065(10) = 10 - 8 = 2.
22 is a term as 22 - A001065(22) = 22 - 14 = 2^3.
