COMMENTS
Up to a(11) all terms have prime factors whose concatenation length in base n is n, the minimum possible value. Is this true for all a(n)?
EXAMPLE
a(7) = 39255 as 39255 = 3*5*2617 = 11_2*101_2*101000111001_2 = "11101101000111001" which contains all digits 0...1 = 10_3*12_3*10120221_3 = "101210120221" which contains all digits 0...2, 3_4*11_4*220321_4 = "311220321" which contains all digits 0...3 = 3_5*10_5*40432_5 = "31040432" which contains all digits 0...4 = 3_6*5_6*20041_6 = "3520041" which contains all digits 0...5 = 3_7*5_7*10426_7 = "3510426" which contains all digits 0...6.
