COMMENT

All prime p>3 divide 3^(p-1) - 2^(p-1). It appears that 1 and 529 = 23^2 are the only perfect squares in A073631(n) = {1, 65, 133, 529, 793, 1105, 1649, 1729, ...} Nonprimes n such that n divides 3^(n-1)-2^(n-1). Most terms of A073631(n) are square-free. First 50 non-square-free terms of A073631(n) are the multiples of 23^2. Conjecture: All non-square-free terms of A073631(n) are the multiples of 23^2. Prime terms in a(n) are listed in A130059 = {67,89,199,331,617,881,5281,35839,...}. Note that the many terms in a(n) {1,133,793,8911,13333,22177,26467,38897,44023,54913,65869,...} are also in A073631(n).
