%N Numbers whose prime factorization viewed as a tuple of nonzero powers is palindromic.

%C The fixed points of permutation A069799.

%C Differs from its subsequence, A072774, Powers of squarefree numbers, for the first time at n=68, as here a(68) = 90 is included, as 90 = p_1^1 * p_2^2 * p_3^1 has a palindromic tuple of exponents, even although not all of them are identical.

%C Differs from its another subsequence, A236510, in that, although numbers like 42 = 2^1 * 3^1 * 5^0 * 7^1, with a non-palindromic exponent-tuple (1,1,0,1) are excluded from A236510, it is included in this sequence, because here only the nonzero exponents are considered, and (1,1,1) is a palindrome.

%C Differs from A085924 in that as that sequence is subtly base-dependent, it excludes 1024 (= 2^10), as then the only exponent present, 10, and thus also its concatenation, "10", is not a palindrome when viewed in decimal base. On the contrary, here a(691) = 1024.

%e As 1 has an empty factorization, (), which also is a palindrome, 1 is present.

%e As 42 = 2 * 3 * 7 = p_1^1 * p_2^1 * p_4^1, and (1,1,1) is palindrome, 42 is present.

%e As 90 = 2 * 9 * 5 = p_1^1 * p_2^2 * p_3^1, and (1,2,1) is palindrome, 90 is present.

%e Any prime power (A000961) is present, as such numbers have a factorization p^e (e >= 1), and any singleton sequence (e) by itself forms a palindrome.
