%N Carmichael numbers of the form (6*k+1)*(12*k+1)*(18*k+1), where 6*k+1, 12*k+1 and 18*k+1 are all primes.

%C Also called Chernick's Carmichael numbers. The polynomial (6*k+1)*(12*k+1)*(18*k+1) is the simplest Chernick polynomial. [Named after the American physicist and mathematician Jack Chernick (1911-1971). - _Amiram Eldar_, Jun 15 2021]

%C The first term, 1729, is the Hardy-Ramanujan number and the smallest primary Carmichael number (A324316).

%C Dickson's conjecture implies that this sequence is infinite, as pointed out by Chernick.

%C All terms of this sequence are primary Carmichael numbers (A324316) having the following remarkable property. Let m be a term of A033502. For each prime divisor p of m, the sum of the base-p digits of m equals p. This property also holds for "almost all" 3-term Carmichael numbers (A087788), since they can be represented by certain Chernick polynomials, whose values obey a strict s-decomposition (A324460) besides certain exceptions, see Kellner 2019. - _Bernd C. Kellner_, Aug 03 2022
