I'm working on the C115.

Let me make sure I have this right:

You'd like a list showing any matched parity sequences with index 2 > index 1?

As an example, 2^12:
Code:
0 .   4096 = 2^12
1 .   4095 = 3^2 * 5 * 7 * 13
2 .   4641 = 3 * 7 * 13 * 17
3 .   3423 = 3 * 7 * 163
4 .   1825 = 5^2 * 73
5 .   469 = 7 * 67
6 .   75 = 3 * 5^2
7 .   49 = 7^2
8 .   8 = 2^3
9 .   7 = 7
I'm working on a program to find all such sequences within the tables. Am I on the right track?

I ran a YAFU Colab instance against the C146 and it knocked down to a C104. If no one else claims it, I'll factor the C104 tomorrow.

Edit: I just realized that yoyo has these reserved, but the initial term is greater than 139 digits!

@yoyo: Should I leave the C104 for you, or go ahead and factor it? The index is at 147 digits. The other sequence was at 143 digits, but the cofactor was C115. Sorry if I overstepped your reservation.

This is exactly it.
And if you write the program, you will see the conjecture that I will present tomorrow.
I draw your attention to the bases which are primorial numbers and primorial numbers without the factor 2.

Now you have an idea of the conjectures I was able to formulate : try to guess them ?
For example, do you see exponent 14 for the primorial bases ?
And above all, you are missing the odd bases (with odd exponents of course) that do not appear in your table !
The primorials without the factor 2 are very special compared to the other odd numbers, I won't tell you more, we'll see if you come to the same conclusions as me if you try it out.
It was when I started to observe this kind of thing 15 days ago that I asked you to complete sequences or add some bases.
Tonight or tomorrow morning, I will scan all of the project bases taking into account the new data.

I'm sorry, this is my fault, I should have reminded in my post # 892 that these bases had been reserved by yoyo.
I thought to myself that I needed to have index 2 of as many of these sequences as possible very quickly before tomorrow morning (March 2), for when I will do the full scan of all the databases.
I am really sorry !
