%N a(1)=1. Thereafter, all terms are primes raised to the values of earlier terms of the sequence.

%C These are the values of exponent towers consisting completely of primes coefficients. (For example, p^(q^(r^(s^..))), all variables being primes.) This sequence first differs from the terms of A096165, after the initial 1 in this sequence, when 18446744073709551616 = 2^64 occurs in A096165 but not in this sequence.

%C A064372(a(n)) = 1. [_Reinhard Zumkeller_, Aug 27 2011]
