COMMENT

If p=2^n-993 is prime, then 2^(n-1)*p is a solution to sigma(x)-2x = 992 = 2^5*(2^5-1) = 2*A000396(3).

EXAMPLE

a(4)=10 since 2^10-993 = 31 is prime.

For exponents a(1)=1, a(2)=4 and a(3)=6, we get 2^a(k)-993 = -991, -977 and -929 which are negative, but which are prime in absolute value.
