COMMENTS
The exponents are given in A066343. - Evgeny Kapun, Jan 16 2017
An equivalent definition (which was formerly the definition of A074113): "Smallest n-digit number of the form p^a*q^b... with the maximum value of a+b+.... where p, q etc. are primes. If a,b,c,... are the indices in the signature prime factorization then a+b+c ... is a maximum." That this is the same sequence follows from the inequality p^a*q^b... >= 2^(a+b+...) and the fact that there always exists a power of 2 between two consecutive powers of 10.
