A063684 Numbers k such that m(k!) = 2, where m(k) = mu(k) + mu(k+1) + mu(k+2). 0

%I #51 Jul 08 2023 20:14:41

%S 8,13,14,18,19,20,25,36,38,43,48,51,52,54,60,71,74,75,78,80,87,91,92,

%T 105,108,110,112,114

%N Numbers k such that m(k!) = 2, where m(k) = mu(k) + mu(k+1) + mu(k+2).

%C Equivalently, k such that m(k!) = 2, where m(k) = mu(k+1) + mu(k+2), as mu(k!)=0 for all k >= 4 (because 4=2^2 divides k!). - _Rick L. Shepherd_, Aug 20 2003

%C 127 belongs to the sequence. - _Serge Batalov_, Feb 17 2011

%e 8 is a term: 8! = 40320; mu(40320) = 0, mu(40321) = 1, mu(40322) = 1, 0+1+1 = 2.

%e 98 is not a term because 98! + 2 = 2 * 31003012014959 * 114951592532951 * 2015644865638913835753087050212028452990938458387 * P78 has an odd number of factors. - _Sean A. Irvine_, Feb 03 2010

%Y Cf. A063838, A008683.

%Y Cf. A084846 (mu(n!+1)).
