Equivalently, numbers k for which A332214(k), and also A332817(k) are seventh powers.
The sequence is defined inductively as:
(a) it contains 0 and 64,
and
(b) for any nonzero term a(n), (2*a(n)) + 1 and 128*a(n) are also included as terms.
When iterating n -> 2n+1 mod 127, starting from 64 we get 64, 2, 5, 11, 23, 47, 95, and then cycle starts again from 64 (see A153893), while on the other hand, x^7 mod 127 obtains values: 0, 1, 19, 20, 22, 24, 28, 37, 52, 59, 68, 75, 90, 99, 103, 105, 107, 108, 126. These sets have no terms in common, therefore there are no seventh powers in this sequence after the initial 0.
