%N A097406 Largest primitive prime factor of 2^n-1.
%C A097406 Except for a(6) where 2^6-1 = 1*63; 3*21; 7*9. 9, 21 and 63 are composite.
%C A097406 Prime factors 3 & 7 first appear when n=2 & n=3 so neither of them is 
               unique.
%C A097406 Conjectures: (1) For every n the highest unique prime factor is of the 
               form kn+1. The values for k are in A097407. (2) For each composite 
               n many factors of the form kn+1 occur intermittently but always singly 
               in any cofactor pair. (3) For each prime n every factor is of the 
               form kn+1.
%C A097406 A prime factor of 2^n-1 is called primitive if it does not divide 2^r-1 
               for any r<n, cf. A086251.
%Y A097406 Cf. A064078, A097407.
