COMMENT

According to Karsten Meyer (arbol01(AT)gmx.de), May 16 2006, 6 should be excluded, following the strict definition in Crandall and Pomerance.

Theorem: If both numbers q & 2q-1 are primes(q is in the sequence A005382) and n=q*(2q-1) then 7^(n-1)==1 (mod 7)(n is in the sequence) iff q=2 or mod(q,14) is in the set {1, 5, 13}. 6,703,18721,38503,88831,104653,146611,188191,... are such terms. This sequence is a subsequence of A122784. - Farideh Firoozbakht (mymontain(AT)yahoo.com), Sep 14 2006
