COMMENTS

Where record values of floor[ln(n/n’)] occur, being n’ the arithmetic derivative of n. - Paolo P. Lava, Mar 20 2012

LINKS

Table of n, a(n) for n=0..25.

FORMULA

Lim_[n approaches infinity] a(n+1)/a(n) = e. - Jonathan Vos Post, Apr 30 2006

EXAMPLE

The first prime > e^3= 20.085.... is 23, so a(3) = 23.

MATHEMATICA

p[n_] := Module[{r, i}, r = 2; i = 1; While[r <= n, i = i + 1; r = Prime[i]]; r]; Table[p[E^n], {n, 1, 10}]

PROG

(PARI) for(n=1, 50, print1(nextprime(exp(n))", "))

CROSSREFS

Cf. A000040, A000149, A014210.
