COMMENTS
Except for a(1) = 3 instead of 2, a(n) is the least prime obtained as a binomial transform of n numbers. E.g. a(5) = (1,5,10,10,5,1).(1,1,1,1,1,6)= 37. - Amarnath Murthy, Nov 26 2003
a(n) is the smallest m for which m>(tau(m))^n, where tau(m) is the number of divisors of m. [Vladimir Shevelev, May 31 2010]
Equivalently, "Smallest prime > 2^n" while in A104080 it is "Smallest prime >= 2^n". The only difference is the 2nd term with a(1) = 3 and A104080(1) = 2. - Bernard Schott, Oct 30 2020
