COMMENTS
First values of k and n such that k > 100 are: k=114, n=6041; for k > 200: k=210, n=26171; for k > 300: k=357, n=218084; for k > 400: k=402, n=576239.
Additionally, for k > 500: k=585, n=3569114; for k > 600: k=630, n=3802301; for k > 700: k=744, n=24307841; for k > 800: k=855, n=25051934; for k > 900: k=1008, n=54168539. Other cases k > 900: k=945, n=74380946, k=915, n=89992964, k=939, n=118991066. - Zak Seidov, May 23 2007
It is easily proved that for n > 2, a(n) >= A089128(n+1). The first inequality is a(21) = 4. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, May 16 2018
