Thank you Hans!

CC: Neil,

is here enough terms:
4181, 10877, 75077
to submit it as as sequence of its own? (with keyword:more )
"Composite numbers n such that A001177(n) is prime."
(A subset of http://oeis.org/A233281 )
Again, people are free to invent better names/definitions.


BTW, All are members of various Lucas / Frobenius pseudoprimes sequences:
https://oeis.org/search?q=4181+10877+75077&sort=&language=&go=Search


As what comes to the name of A233281, Hans objected its current version:

> "Numbers n such that the least Fibonacci number F_k which is a multiple of n has a prime index, i.e. k is in A000040."

Actually, I considered also these alternative names:

Numbers n such that the least p satisfying n|F_p (where F_p is p-th
Fibonacci number) is prime.

Numbers n such that the least p satisfying F_p = x*n (where F_p is
p-th Fibonacci number) is prime.

Numbers n such that the least k which satisfies {F_k = 0 mod n} is
prime, where F_k is k-th Fibonacci number.

Numbers n such that the least Fibonacci number F_k which satisfies
{F_k = 0 mod n} is Fibonacci number F_k with a prime index k.


Vote for the best or suggest a better one?


Yours,

Antti
