Charles R Greathouse IV, Feb 13 2009

Crocker shows that this sequence is infinite.
All members above 5 found so far (up to 2.5 * 10^11) are divisible by 255 = 3 * 5 * 17, and many are divisible by 257. I conjecture that all members of this sequence greater than 5 are divisible by 255. This implies that all odd numbers (greater than 7) are the sum of a prime and at most three positive powers of two.
Pan shows that, for every c > 1, a(n) << x^c. More specifically, there are constants C,D > 0 such that there are at least Dx/exp(C log x log log log log x/log log log x) members of this sequence up to x. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Apr 11 2016
All terms > 5 are numbers k > 3 such that k - 2^n is a de Polignac number (A006285) for every n > 0 with 2^n < k. Are there numbers K such that |K - 2^n| is a Riesel number (A101036) for every n > 0? If so, ||K - 2^n| - 2^m| is composite for every pair m,n > 0, by the dual Riesel conjecture. - Thomas Ordowski, Jan 06 2024
In keeping with the example's connection to A000215, the lowest ki for ki * Product_{i=0..11} (F(i)) to belong to A156695 are 1, 433007, 25471, 17047, 1291, 7, 101, 807, 83, 347, 9, 179. So for example, 433007*(3*5) is a term. This implies a variant of the first commented conjecture accordingly. - Bill McEachen, Apr 17 2025
