%N a(n) is the smallest k>=n such that the number of partitions of k is a multiple of n, or -1 if no such k exists.

%C I do not know if a(n) exists for all n. First term which is currently unknown is a(2219) (a(2219) > 11600, while a(2218) = 2602).

%e a(4) is 11 because 11 is the smallest number for which P(11) is divisible by 4, where P() is the partition function.
