%N a(n) = lcm(1,2,...,n) * Sum_{k=1..n} (2^(k-1) - 1) / k.

%C By Wolstenholme's theorem, if p > 3 is a prime, then p^3 | a(p).

%C Conjecture: for n > 3, if n^3 | a(n), then n is prime. If so, there are no such pseudoprimes.

%C Problem: are there weak pseudoprimes m such that m^2 | a(m)? None up to 5*10^4.

%C Composite numbers m such that m | a(m) are 9, 25, 49, 99, 121, 125, 169, 221, 289, 343, 357, 361, 399, 529, 665, 841, 961, 1331, 1369, 1443, 1681, 1849, 2183, ... Cf. A082180.

%C Prime numbers p such that p^4 | a(p) are probably only the Wolstenholme primes A088164.
