Comments

Every prime is the sum of the first powers of its prime factors, so only composite numbers have been considered in this sequence.

Every integer of the form p^p^k with p prime and k>0 is in the sequence, since it equals the sum of the (p^k - k)-th powers of its prime factors. The first 8 terms of the sequence are of this form, but 1096744 = 2^3*11^3*103 and 2836295 = 5*7*11*53*139 are not.

4473671462 = 2*13*179*593*1621 is also not a prime power.
