%N Numbers of the form 2^(2*p+1)*3*M_p^2, where p > 2 is a Mersenne exponent, A000043, and M_p is the corresponding Mersenne prime, A000668.

%C Also numbers with power-spectral basis {M_p^2*(M_p+2)^2, 4*M_p^2*(M_p+1)^2, (M_p^2-1)^2}, where by power-spectral basis we mean a spectral basis that consists of primes and powers. The first element of the power-spectral basis is A330819(n+1), the second element is A330840(n+1), and the third element is A330820(n+1).

%C Subsequence of Zumkeller numbers (A083207), since a(n) = 2^r * 3 * s, where s is relatively prime to 6. - _Ivan N. Ianakiev_, Feb 03 2020
