A240007 Smallest k such that the number of groups of order k is equal to prime(n), or 0 if no such k exists. 0

%I #16 Sep 15 2014 04:11:03

%S 4,75,8,375,140,56,675,1029,294,1380,0,180,420,112,120,656,6875,312,

%N Smallest k such that the number of groups of order k is equal to prime(n), or 0 if no such k exists.

%C Smallest k such that A000001(k) = prime(n), or 0 if no such k exists.

%C It seems that there is no order for which the number of groups is 31, 59, 71, 73, 79, 83, 89, 97, 101, 103, 109, 127, 139,...

%C Above comment is incorrect. According to the Conway article, every n <= 10000000 is the number of groups of order k for some k. So all the 0 entries above are wrong, but we do not necessarily know the true value. - _Eric M. Schmidt_, Sep 14 2014

%e a(6)= 56 because prime(6) = 13 => there exists 13 groups of order 56.
