FORMULA

a(n) = Min[T in A014612 and A002321(T) = n].

EXAMPLE

a(-3) = 20 = 2^2 * 5 = the first 3-almost prime T for which the Mertens function M(T) = -3.

a(-2) = 8 = 2^3 = the first 3-almost prime T for which the Mertens function M(T) = -2.

a(-1) = 27 = 3^3 = the first 3-almost prime T for which the Mertens function M(T) = -1.

a(0) = 164 = 2^2 * 41 = Min[A014612 INTERSECTION A028442] = the first semiprime T for which the Mertens function M(T) = 0.

a(1) = 98 = 2 * 7^2 = Min[A014612 INTERSECTION A118684] = the first 3-almost prime T for which the Mertens function M(s) = 1.

a(2) = 335 = 3 * 5 * 23 = the first 3-almost prime T for which the Mertens function M(T) = 2.

a(3) = 343 = 7^3 = the first 3-almost prime T for which the Mertens function M(T) = 3.
