Comments

My 1981 publication studies A064380 with the quite natural convention A064380(1)=1. So a(1) could alternatively be defined as 1. By the definitions, it is clear that A064380(m) >= A000010(m).

Theorem. For every n >= 0, the equation A064380(m) - A000010(m) = n has infinitely many solutions.
