a(n) is the least prime that either decomposes or ramifies in the imaginary quadratic field with discriminant D, D = -A003657(n).
The quadratic field with discriminant D = -A003657(n) has class number 1 if and only if a(n) >= (1/4)*A003657(n). If the quadratic field with discriminant D = -A003657(n) has class number 3 then a(n)^2 < (1/4)*A003657(n) < a(n)^3.
For most n, a(n) is relatively small. There are only 86 n's among [1, 3043] (there are 3043 terms in A003657 below 10000) that violate a(n) < log(A003657(n)). In fact, if we ignore the first term, the only terms among the first 3043 ones that seem unusually large are a(15) = 11 (with A003657(15) = 43), a(22) = 17 (with A003657(22) = 67), a(52) = 41 (with A003657(52) = 163), a(1147) = 23 (with A003657(1147) = 3763), a(2677) = 23 (with A003657(2677) = 8803) and a(2758) = 23 (with A003657(2758) = 9067).

EXAMPLE
|
Let K = Q[sqrt(-3763)] with D = -3763 = -A003657(1147), we have: (-3763/2) = (-3763/3) = ... = (-3763/19) = -1 and (-3763/23) = +1, so 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17 and 19 remain inert in K and 23 decomposes in K, so a(1147) = 23.
