COMMENTS
From M. F. Hasler, Oct 29 2014: (Start)
This is the subsequence of terms of A034710 with digits in nondecreasing order, which is meant by "smallest": For example, 132 also has sum of digits = product of digits, but is already "represented" by 123. The word "set" in the definition actually means "multiset".
The sequence is infinite: for any number N whose digits form a nondecreasing sequence whose sum of digits S is not larger than the product of digits P (i.e., N in A062998), a term of the sequence is obtained by prefixing N with P-S digits '1'. (End)

EXAMPLE
1124 is a term since 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 1*1*2*4 = 8.
