%N A282057 Odd numbers n such that for all k >= 1 the numbers n*4^k - 1 and n*4^k + 1 do not form a twin prime pair.
%C A282057 Next term is 123 or 125.
%C A282057 A sufficient condition for an odd number > 1 to belong to this sequence is that it is not congruent to 3, 15 or 27 mod 30.
%e A282057 3 is not in the sequence because 3*4^1 - 1 = 11 and 3*4^1 + 1 = 13 are a pair of twin primes.
%e A282057 5 is in the sequence because gcd(5 + 1, 4 - 1) = 3 is a trivial factor of 5*4^k + 1. Therefore, for all k >= 1 the numbers 5*4^k - 1 and 5*4^k + 1 do not form a twin prime pair.
