"The answer to the second question, as to whether there is a point beyond which all primes yield periods shorter than p-1, is unknown. It is widely believed that there should be infinitely many primes for which the period is exactly p-1, but at present we cannot be certain." [Ball]

All prime numbers p can be classified by k = (p mod 12) into four classes: k=1, 5, 7, 11. The Mersennne prime numbers 2^p-1, p > 2 are in the class k=7 with p=12*(n-1)+7, n=1,2,.... As all 2^p (p odd) are in class k=8 it follows that all 2^p-1, p > 2 are in class k=7. - Freimut Marschner, Jul 27 2013
From "The Guinness Book of Primes": "During the reign of Queen Elizabeth I, the largest known prime number was the number of grains of rice on the chessboard up to and including the nineteenth square: 524,287 [= 2^19 - 1]. By the time Lord Nelson was fighting the Battle of Trafalgar, the record for the largest prime had gone up to the thirty-first square of the chessboard: 2,147,483,647 [= 2^31 - 1]. This ten-digits number was proved to be prime in 1772 by the Swiss mathematician Leonard Euler, and it held the record until 1867." [du Sautoy] - Robert G. Wilson v, Nov 26 2013

Theorem. Let b = 2^p - 1 (where p is a prime). Then b is a Mersenne prime iff (c = 2^p - 2 is totient or a term of A002202). Otherwise, if c is (nontotient or a term of A005277) then b is composite. Proof. Trivial, since, while b = v^g - 1 where v is even, v > 2, g is an integer, g > 1, b is always composite, and c = v^g - 2 is nontotient (or a term of A005277), and so is for any composite b = 2^g - 1 (in the last case, c = v^g - 2 is also nontotient, or a term of A005277). - Sergey Pavlov, Aug 30 2021 [Disclaimer: This proof has not been checked. - N.

Conjecture: 2^n-1 is squarefree iff gcd(n,2^n-1)=1. If true, the conjecture would imply that Mersenne numbers (A001348) are squarefree. - Vladeta Jovovic, Apr 12 2002. But the conjecture is not true: counterexamples are n = 364 and n = 1755, i.e., gcd(364,2^364-1) = 1 and (2^364-1) mod 1093^2 = 0 and gcd(1755,2^1755-1) = 1 and (2^1755-1) mod 3511^2 = 0, cf. A001220. - Vladeta Jovovic, Nov 01 2005. The conjecture is true with assumption that n is not a multiple of A002326((q-1)/2), where q is a Wieferich prime A001220. - Thomas Ordowski, Nov 17 2015
If d|n and 2^d-1 is not squarefree, then 2^n-1 cannot be squarefree. For example, if 6 is in the sequence then 6*d is also. - Enrique Pérez Herrero, Feb 28 2009
If p(p-1)|n then p^2|2^n-1, where p is an odd prime. - Thomas Ordowski, Jan 22 2014
The primitive elements of this sequence are A237043. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Feb 05 2014
Dilcher & Ericksen prove that this sequence is exactly the set of numbers divisible by either t(p)p for a Wieferich prime p>2 or t(p) for a non-Wieferich prime p, where t(p) is the order of 2 modulo p (see Proposition 3.1). - Kellen Myers, Jun 09 2015
If d^2 divides 2^n-1 then d divides n, where n is not a multiple of 364, 1755, ...; i.e., A002326((q-1)/2) for Wieferich primes q, A001220. - Thomas Ordowski, Nov 15 2015
(1, 2^n-1, 2^n) is an abc triple iff 2^n-1 is not squarefree. - William Hu, Jul 04 2024

Examples

			a(2)=12 because 2^12 - 1 = 4095 = 5*(3^2)*7*13 is divisible by a square.

a(n) = 2^n - 1 for n in A000043, so Mersenne primes A000668 is a subsequence of this one. Binary length of a(n) is given by A110699 and the number of zeros in a(n) is given by A110700. - Max Alekseyev, Aug 03 2005
Drmota, Mauduit, & Rivat prove that a(n) exists for n > N for some N. - Charles R Greathouse IV, May 17 2010

Examples

			The fourth term is 23 (10111 in binary), since no prime less than 23 has exactly 4 1's in its binary representation.
