COMMENTS
The initial terms coincide with those of A003954, although the two sequences are eventually different.
First disagreement at index 27: a(27) = 14301811845272651309521593066, A003954(27) = 14301811845272651309521593132. - Klaus Brockhaus, May 07 2011
Computed with MAGMA using commands similar to those used to compute A154638.
