COMMENTS
An abc-hit is a triple of coprime positive integers a, b, c such that a + b = c and rad(abc) < c, where rad(n) is the largest squarefree number dividing n.
EXAMPLE
a(3) = 125 because rad(3*125*128) = 3*5*2 = 31 < 128, hence (3, 125, 128) is an abc-hit and (3, b, b+3) isn't an abc-hit for every b < 125.
MAPLE
rad:=n -> mul(i, i in factorset(n)):
min_c_for_a:=proc(n) local a, b, c, ra, rc;
for a to n do
ra:=rad(a):
for c from a+1 do
if igcd(a, c)=1 then rc:=rad(c):
if ra*rc<c then b:=c-a:
if ra*rc*rad(b)<c then break fi fi fi od:
print([a, b, c]) od end;
