Cunningham chain of the second kind of length i is a sequence of prime numbers (p_1, ..., p_i) such that p_(r + 1) = 2*p_r - 1 for all 1 =< r < i. This sequence tells the length of the Cunningham chain of the second kind for primes from A005382.

Examples

			n = 1: A005382(1) = 2 --> 3 --> 5 --> 9, 9 is not a prime, thus a(1) = 2.
n = 3: A005382(3) = 7 --> 13 --> 25, 25 is not a prime, thus a(3) = 1.

A composite number n is a Fermat pseudoprime to base b if and only if b^(n-1) == 1 (mod n). Fermat pseudoprimes to base 2 are often simply called pseudoprimes.
Theorem: If both numbers q and 2q - 1 are primes (q is in the sequence A005382) and n = q*(2q-1) then 2^(n-1) == 1 (mod n) (n is in the sequence) if and only if q is of the form 12k + 1. The sequence 2701, 18721, 49141, 104653, 226801, 665281, 721801, ... is related. This subsequence is also a subsequence of the sequences A005937 and A020137. - Farideh Firoozbakht, Sep 15 2006
Also, composite odd numbers n such that n divides 2^n - 2 (cf. A006935). It is known that all primes p divide 2^(p-1) - 1. There are only two known numbers n such that n^2 divides 2^(n-1) - 1, A001220(n) = {1093, 3511} Wieferich primes p: p^2 divides 2^(p-1) - 1. 1093^2 and 3511^2 are the terms of a(n). - Alexander Adamchuk, Nov 06 2006
An odd composite number 2n + 1 is in the sequence if and only if multiplicative order of 2 (mod 2n+1) divides 2n. - Ray Chandler, May 26 2008
The Carmichael numbers A002997 are a subset of this sequence. For the Sarrus numbers which are not Carmichael numbers, see A153508. - Artur Jasinski, Dec 28 2008
An odd number n greater than 1 is a Fermat pseudoprime to base b if and only if ((n-1)! - 1)*b^(n-1) == -1 (mod n). - Arkadiusz Wesolowski, Aug 20 2012
The name "Sarrus numbers" is after Frédéric Sarrus, who, in 1819, discovered that 341 is a counterexample to the "Chinese hypothesis" that n is prime if and only if 2^n is congruent to 2 (mod n). - Alonso del Arte, Apr 28 2013
The name "Poulet numbers" appears in Monografie Matematyczne 42 from 1932, apparently because Poulet in 1928 produced a list of these numbers (cf. Miller, 1975). - Felix Fröhlich, Aug 18 2014
Numbers n > 2 such that (n-1)! + 2^(n-1) == 1 (mod n). Composite numbers n such that (n-2)^(n-1) == 1 (mod n). - Thomas Ordowski, Feb 20 2016
The only twin pseudoprimes up to 10^13 are 4369, 4371. - Thomas Ordowski, Feb 12 2016
Theorem (A. Rotkiewicz, 1965): (2^p-1)*(2^q-1) is a pseudoprime if and only if p*q is a pseudoprime, where p,q are different primes. - Thomas Ordowski, Mar 31 2016
Theorem (W. Sierpiński, 1947): if n is a pseudoprime (odd or even), then 2^n-1 is a pseudoprime. - Thomas Ordowski, Apr 01 2016
If 2^n-1 is a pseudoprime, then n is a prime or a pseudoprime (odd or even). - Thomas Ordowski, Sep 05 2016
From Amiram Eldar, Jun 19 2021, Apr 21 2024: (Start)
Erdős (1950) called these numbers "almost primes".
According to Erdős (1949) and Piza (1954), the term "pseudoprime" was coined by D. H. Lehmer.
Named after the French mathematician Pierre de Fermat (1607-1665), or, alternatively, after the Belgian mathematician Paul Poulet (1887-1946), or, the French mathematician Pierre Frédéric Sarrus (1798-1861). (End)
If m is a term of this sequence, then (m-1)/ord(2,m) >= 5, where ord(a,m) is the multiplicative order of a modulo m; see my link below. Actually, it seems that we always have (m-1)/ord(2,m) >= 9. - Jianing Song, Nov 04 2024

Suppose that x > 0. A fraction p/q of primes is a primes-only best approximate (POBA), and we write "p/q in B(x)", if 0 < |x - p/q| < |x - u/v| for all primes u and v such that v < q. Note that for some choices of x, there are values of q for which there are two POBAs. In these cases, the greater is placed first; e.g., B(3) = (7/2, 5/2, 17/5, 13/5, 23/7, 19/7, ...).
See A265772 and A265774 for definitions of lower POBA and upper POBA. In the following guide, for example, A001359/A006512 represents (conjecturally in some cases) the Lower POBAs p(n)/q(n) to 1, where p = A001359 and q = A006512 except for first terms in some cases. Every POBA is either a lower POBA or an upper POBA.
x Lower POBA Upper POBA POBA

Examples

			The POBAs for 1 start with 3/2, 2/3, 5/7, 13/11, 11/13, 19/17, 17/19, 31/29, 29/31, 43/41, 41/43, 61/59, 59/61. For example, if p and q are primes and q > 13, then 11/13 is closer to 1 than p/q is.

Theorem: If q>3 and both numbers q and (2q-1) are primes then n=q*(2q-1) is a pseudoprime to base 3 (i.e. n is in the sequence). So for n>2, A005382(n)*(2*A005382(n)-1) is in the sequence (see Comments lines for the sequence A122780). 91,703,1891,2701,12403,18721,38503,49141... are such terms. This sequence is a subsequence of A122780. - Farideh Firoozbakht, Sep 13 2006
Composite numbers n such that 3^(n-1) == 1 (mod n).
Theorem (R. Steuerwald, 1948): if n is a pseudoprime to base b and gcd(n,b-1)=1, then (b^n-1)/(b-1) is a pseudoprime to base b. In particular, if n is an odd pseudoprime to base 3, then (3^n-1)/2 is a pseudoprime to base 3. - Thomas Ordowski, Apr 06 2016
Steuerwald's theorem can be strengthened by weakening his assumption as follows: if n is a weak pseudoprime to base b and gcd(n,b-1)=1, then ... - Thomas Ordowski, Feb 23 2021

Comments

For the comment here, we extend the definition of the second kind of Cunningham chain (see Wikipedia-article) so that also isolated primes for which neither (p+1)/2 nor 2p-1 is a prime are considered to be in singular chains, that is, in chains of the length one. If we replace one or more instances of any particular odd prime factor p in n with any odd prime q in such a chain, so that m = (q^k)*n / p^(e-k), where e is the exponent of p of n, and k <= e is the number of instances of p replaced with q, then it holds that a(m) = a(n), and by induction, the value stays invariant for any number of such replacements. Note also that A001222, but not necessarily A001221 will stay invariant in such changes.
For example, if some of the odd prime divisors p of n are in A005382, then replacing it with 2p-1 (i.e., the corresponding terms of A005383), gives a new number m, for which a(m) = a(n). And vice versa, the same is true for any of the prime divisors > 3 of n that are in A005383, then replacing any one of them with (p+1)/2 will not affect the result. For example, a(37*37*37) = a(19*37*73) = 729 as 37 is both in A005382 and in A005383.
a(n) = A053575(n) for squarefree n (A005117). - Antti Karttunen, Mar 16 2021
