Numbers n such that tau(n) - tau(n+1) = 2. Numbers n such that A051950(n+1) = -2. Numbers n such that A049820(n) - A049820(n+1) = -3.

Sequence of starts of first run of n (n>=2) consecutive integers m_1, m_2, ..., m_n such that tau(m_k) - tau(m_k-1) = -2, for all k=n...2: 6, 45, 1016, ... (a(5) > 100000); example for n=4: tau(1016) = 8, tau(1017) = 6, tau(1018) = 4, tau(1019) = 2.

Example

45 is in sequence because tau(46) - tau(45) = 4 - 6 = -2.
