EXAMPLE

a(7) = 14 as 14 and 14+7 = 21 have the same prime signature p*q.

a(13) = 21 as 21 is the smallest number such that 21 +13 = 34 and 21 both have the same prime signature p*q.

a(19) = 8 as 8 +19 = 27 = 3^3,8 = 2^3 both have the prime signature p^3.

PROG

(PARI) ps(n) = local(f); f = factor(n); vecsort(f[, 2]); a(n) = local(P, m, v); P = vector(n, i, ps(i)); m = 1; while (1, for (i = 1, n, v = ps(m*n + i); if (v == P[i], return((m - 1)*n + i), P[i] = v)); m++); (Wasserman)
