A102641 Compute the greatest prime divisors [A006530(),GPD] of -j+2^n for j=0,1,...,L. a(n) is the maximal L length of such a sequence in which the greatest prime divisors are increasing with decreasing j. 4

COMMENTS

A006530(2^n)=2 is a local minimum. Going either upward or downward with the argument, the largest prime factors are increasing for a while. Here the maximal length of increasing largest-prime-divisor sequences are given when going downward with the arguments. Compare with A102640.

EXAMPLE

n=12: 2^10=4096. The greatest prime divisors for 4096, 4095, 4094, 4093 are as follows:{2, 13, 89, 4093}. A006530[4092]=31 is already smaller than A006530[4093]. Thus the length of increasing GPD-sequence is 4=a(12).
