primes of ther form 19*3*2^k+ or -1
I found only three primes of this form up to k=10.000. (k=2,8,18)
Are they finite? |
There should be infinitely many. You can look at the residue classes and do an infinite product to guess how sparse they will be.

Looks like the OP missed quite a few. If the intent was to find exponents on [i]both[/i] lists, the exponent 10 is missing and the exponent 18 is wrong.
