1,1

FORMULA

Define F(n) = 2^(2^n)+1 = n-th Fermat number, M(n) = 2^n-1 = the n-th Mersenne number. Then we are considering the numbers f(n) = F(n)+M(n)-1 = 2^(2^n) + 2^n - 1 (cf. A119563).

EXAMPLE

F(2)= 2^(2^2)+1 = 17, M(2) = 2^2-1 = 3, F(2)+ M(2)-1 = 19 is prime, so 2 is a member.

PROGRAM

(PARI) fmp3(n)=for(x=0, n, y=2^(2^x)+2^x-1; if(ispseudoprime(y), print1(y", ")))

CROSSREFS
