A099144 Numbers n such that the equation S(k) = S(n+k) has no solutions for k <= n, where S is the Kempner function A002034. 1

%S 1,2,6,24,48,120,240,720

%N Numbers n such that the equation S(k) = S(n+k) has no solutions for k <= n, where S is the Kempner function A002034.

%C No other n < 10^6. Note that n is a factorial or twice a factorial. For n = 1 and 6, there is no known k such that S(k) = S(n+k). For n = 2, 24, 48, 120, 240 and 720, the least k is respectively 16, 48, 10192, 240, 3600 and 3888.
