COMMENTS

It is conjectured that a(n) always exists. a(n) has been computed for n < 5*10^11, with largest value a(248281210271)=3307. - Jens Kruse Andersen (jens.k.a(AT)get2net.dk), Nov 28 2004

FORMULA

If a(n) exists, a(n) < 2n, which of course is a great overestimate. - T. D. Noe (noe(AT)sspectra.com), Jul 16 2002

a(n)=A087711(n)-n (Zak Seidov, Nov 28 2007)
