%N Largest prime factor of n-th Bell number A000110(n) (or 1 if A000110(n) = 1).
%C From _David Pasino_, Dec 03 2008: (Start)
%C The number of refinements of a partition is the product of the Bell numbers of the cell sizes.
%C The number of encoarsements is the Bell number of the number of cells.
%C For these to be equal, a Bell number has to be a product of Bell numbers.
%C This happens if there are n-1 single-element cells and 1 n-element cell.
%C Does it ever happen otherwise? (End)
