Comments

After a(1), all the terms are multiples of 3.

From Robert Israel, Sep 18 2017: (Start)

All terms are odd.

If m and n are terms then lcm(m,n) is a term.

If n is a term not divisible by 9, then 3n is a term. (End)

Example

3 appears is a term because 3^2 divides (17^3 + 1): 4914/9 = 546.
9 appears is a term because 9^2 divides (17^9 + 1): 118587876498/81 = 1464047858.

Maple
