Comments

The initial terms coincide with those of A003948, although the two sequences are eventually different.

First disagreement at index 20: a(20) = 114440917968735, A003948(20) = 114440917968750. - Klaus Brockhaus, Apr 01 2011

Computed with MAGMA using commands similar to those used to compute A154638.
