1, 2 and 5 are the only terms of this sequence which are also in A029544. - Gerasimov Sergey, Feb 23 2014
The next term with this property is > 10000. - Michael B. Porter, Feb 23 2014
The probability of a given number N being a twin prime grows like 1/(log(N))^2, so for a given n, the probability that it has this property is 1/n^2, and the sum converges.  Are there any n for which n*2^n-1 and n*2^n+1 are both prime? - Michael B. Porter, Feb 25 2014
We can write (k+1)*2^k - 1 = {(k+1)/2}*4^{(k+1)/2} - 1, and when k is odd, this takes the form of a generalized Woodall prime (base 4). These are listed in A086661. In other words, {2*A086661 - 1} gives all the odd terms of this sequence. - Jeppe Stig Nielsen, Oct 16 2019
The largest odd term currently known is 3986381 = 2*A086661(21) - 1. - Jeppe Stig Nielsen, Oct 16 2019

Primes in A087323.
Corresponding values of k: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 15, 16, 17, 28, 46, 123, ...
The values of k-1 are listed in A230769. - Jeppe Stig Nielsen, Oct 16 2019

			79 is in this sequence because it is prime and for k = 5, k*2^(k-1) - 1 = 5*2^(5-1) - 1 = 79.
