COMMENTS
This is to 14 as A176763 is to 3 and as A030001 is to 2.
FORMULA
a(n) = MIN{A001023(i) such that n in decimal representation is a substring of A001023(i)}.
EXAMPLE
a(1) = 1 because 14^0 = 1 has "1" as a substring (not a proper substring, though).
a(2) = 2744 because 14^3 = 2744 has "2" as a substring.
a(3) = 38416 because 14^4 = 38416 has "3" as a substring.
MATHEMATICA
A176773[n_] := Block[{k = -1}, While[StringFreeQ[IntegerString[14^++k], IntegerString[n]]]; 14^k]; Array[A176773, 50, 0] (* Paolo Xausa, Apr 03 2024 *)
