If n is in the sequence then so is any multiple of n having the same prime factors as n. 2. If n and m are in the sequence then so is lcm(n,m). For a proof, see [1]. Elements of the sequence that cannot be generated from smaller elements of the sequence using either of these rules are called *primitive*. The sequence of primitive solutions of n|2^n+1 is A136473. 3. The sequence satisfies various congruences, which enable it to be generated quickly. For instance, every element of this sequence not a power of 3 is divisible either by 171 or 243 or 13203 or 2354697 or 10970073 or 22032887841.
