COMMENT

We have the polynomial factorization n^7+1 = (n+1) * (n^6 - n^5 + n^4 - n^3 + n^2 - n + 1). Hence after the initial n=1 prime, the binomial can at best be semiprime and that only when both (n+1) and (n^6 - n^5 + n^4 - n^3 + n^2 - n + 1) are primes.

FORMULA

a(n)^7 + 1 is semiprime. a(n)+1 is prime and a(n)^6 - a(n)^5 + a(n)^4 - a(n)^3 + a(n)^2 - a(n) + 1 is prime.

EXAMPLE

n n^7+1 = ((n+1) * (n^6 - n^5 + n^4 - n^3 + n^2 - n + 1).

2 129 = 3 x 43

10 10000001 = 11 * 909091

16 268435457 = 17 * 15790321

18 612220033 = 19 * 32222107

46 435817657217 = 47 * 9272716111
