Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 59th year, we have over 358,000 sequences, and we’ve crossed 10,300 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS

Phi(5^(n+1), k) = 1 + k^(5^n) + k^(2*5^n) + k^(3*5^n) + k^(4*5^n).

The primes correspond to k(1) through k(4) have a p-1 factorable up to 34% or higher, thus are proved prime by OpenPFGW.

The fifth one, Phi(5^6,18453) = 1 + 18453^3125 + 18453^6250 + 18453^9375 + 18453^12500, is a 55326-digit Fermat and Lucas PRP with 78.86% proof. A CHG proofing is running but it will take month to complete.

The sixth one, Phi(5^7,5517), has 233857 digits and can only be factored to about 26%. It is too big for CHG to provide a proof.

FORMULA

a(n) = A085398(5^(n+1)). - Jinyuan Wang, Dec 21 2022

EXAMPLE

Phi(5^2, 22) = 705429635566498619547944801 is prime, while Phi(25, k) with k = 2 to 21 are composites, so a(1) = 22.
