COMMENTS
The initial terms coincide with those of A170733, although the two sequences are eventually different.
First disagreement at index 17: a(17) = 9315832528564517683, A170733(17) = 9315832528564517774. - Klaus Brockhaus, Mar 30 2011
Computed with MAGMA using commands similar to those used to compute A154638.
