COMMENT

From results on the divisibility of generalized Fibonacci sequences (2nd order recurrences with various integer initial values), it follows that if n is such that n-th Lucas number is a semiprime, it is necessary but not sufficient that n have at most two distinct prime factors (A070915). That is: A000204(n) an element of A001358 implies n an element of A070915. - Jonathan Vos Post (jvospost2(AT)yahoo.com), Sep 22 2005

All numbers in this sequence have the form 2^r p^s, where p is an odd prime and r and s are not both zero. It appears that s=2 for only p=7 and 11, otherwise s=0 or 1. - T. D. Noe (noe(AT)sspectra.com), Nov 29 2005
