Amiram Eldar, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..123
FORMULA
For p = 2, 24 is the solution. If a prime p > 2, the suitable powers of 30 are the least solutions: a(n) = Min{x | d(x) = A000005(x) = p(n)^3} = 30^(prime(n)-1). d(2^(ppp-1)) = d(2^(pp-1)*3^(p-1)) = d(30^(p-1)) = p^3 and 2^(ppp-1) > 2^(pp-1)*3^(p-1) > 30^(p-1) holds if p > 2.
EXAMPLE
If p = 2, then d(128) = d(24) = d(30) = 8 and a(1) = 24 < 30 is the smallest.
If p = 5, then 2^124 > (2^24)*(3^4) > 30^4 = 810000 = a(3).
