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”).

No other terms for k < 3000. - T. D. Noe, Apr 25 2012

Apart from the first term, the exponents must be powers of two. Like Fermat primes, there are probably only finitely many terms. No more terms for k < 2^28 = 268435456. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jul 16 2012
