Appears to be numbers of form 2^a * 3^b, a >= 0, b > 0. - Lekraj Beedassy, Sep 10 2004
This is true: see link "Cyclotomic trinomials". - Robert Israel, Jul 14 2015
3-smooth numbers (A003586) which are not powers of 2 (A000079). - Amiram Eldar, Nov 10 2020
These are the conjugates of semiprimes, where conjugation is A122111; or Heinz numbers of conjugates of length-2 partitions. - Gus Wiseman, Nov 09 2023
A multiplicative semigroup: if m and n are in the sequence, then so is m*n. - Antti Karttunen, Jul 13 2024

Examples

			The 54th cyclotomic polynomial is x^18 - x^9 + 1 which is trinomial, so 54 is in the sequence.
From _Gus Wiseman_, Nov 09 2023: (Start)
The terms and conjugate semiprimes, showing their respective Heinz partitions, begin:
    3: (2)              4: (1,1)
