A159260 Numbers n such that 1 + sum_{i=1..n} 2^prime[i] is prime. +0
2
1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 43, 127, 251, 1903 (list; graph; listen)
OFFSET

1,2

COMMENT

See A159261 for the primes produced by these n. See A159262 for prime(n), the largest exponent in the sum. The term 1903 produces a probable prime; smaller n produce provable primes. See A122035 for the reducibility of the polynomial obtained by replacing 2 by x.

EXAMPLE

1 is here because 1 + 2^2 = 5 is prime.

2 is here because 1 + 2^2 + 2^3 = 13 is prime.

4 is here because 1 + 2^2 + 2^3 + 2^5 + 2^7 = 173 is prime.

5 is here because 1 + 2^2 + 2^3 + 2^5 + 2^7 + 2^11 = 2111 is prime.
