%N a(n) is the minimal product of a positive integer sequence of length n with no duplicate substrings (forward or backward) of length greater than 1.

%H Peter Kagey, <a href="/A282193/a282193_1.hs.txt">Haskell program for A282193</a>.

%e a(1) = 1 via [1];

%e a(2) = 1 via [1,1];

%e ...

%e [1,2,3,1,2] is invalid because the substring [1,2] appears twice.

%e [1,2,1] is invalid because the substring [1,2] appears twice (once forward and once backward).

%Y Cf. A282168 is the sum analog.

%Y Cf. A282164, A282169, A282170.
