COMMENTS
Proof for an explicit upper bound of a(n) [from Nathaniel Johnston]: Using the fact that s <= 9(log_10(k)+1) we see that if k exists then 9(log_10(k)+1)*(9(log_10(k)+1)+n) >= k. When n = 52 it then suffices to check k up to 3849. The rest of the listed values such that a(n) = 0 need to be checked up to k = 25900 to complete the proof for those values. For n = 1, 2, ..., 500 kmax is resp. 1437, 1484, ..., 26814, and the values of n such that a(n) = 0 are 52, 101, 102, 152, 206, 393, 408, 464, 473, 482, ..., and the corresponding values of kmax are 3849, 6218, 6267, 8737, 11452, 21130, 21922, 24892, 25372, 25852, ...

EXAMPLE
a(1) = 12 because s = 3 and 3*(3+1) = 12;
a(10) = 171 because s = 9 and 9*(9+10) = 171.
