%N a(n) is the largest prime factor of the number made by taking the previous term and duplicating the final digit, a(1) = 1.

%C This sequence is periodic with period (23, 233, 2333, 23333, 661, 601, 6011, 6679, 997, 907, 313, 241, 2411, 47, 53, 41, 137, 17, 59, 599, 857, 953, 9533, 13619, 19457, 821) of length 26.

%H <a href="/index/Rec#order_26">Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients</a>, signature (0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1).

%e Next term after 11 is 37 because 111 = 3*37. Next term after 37 is 29 because 377 = 13*29. Next term after 821 is 23 because 8211 = 3*7*17*23.
