(Greetings from The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences!)
A074270 a(n) = the least positive number X such that Cn(X) is X-smooth, where Cn is the n-th cyclotomic polynomial and "X-smooth" means "has no prime factor greater than X". 0

COMMENTS

Inspired by a conjecture of David W. Wilson: for each nonzero polynomial P with integer coefficients, there is an integer X such that P(X) is X-smooth. Certain cyclotomic polynomials seem to stress the conjecture, but no refutation is yet known. If a(11) exists, it is greater than 1,060,000.

EXAMPLE

a(5)=2205 because C5(2205) = 23650012729981 = 11*11*31*61*101*691*1481; and no prime factor is greater than 2205.
