Indices of the greatest prime factor of A334468(n).
Consider A334468, a list of numbers m = n+j such that j > 0 is also the smallest number such that n+j has no prime factor > j for some n and j = A217287(n).
Since prime q always contributes a novel prime divisor (i.e., q itself) to the set of distinct primes that divide at least 1 number i the range n + i (1 <= i <= j), the numbers m in A334468 are composite, and given the above, m is a product of relatively small prime factors.

EXAMPLE
|
Start with n = 1, the empty product. Incrementing n and storing the distinct prime factors each time, we encounter 2, which does not divide any previous number n. Therefore we proceed to n = 3, which is prime and its distinct prime divisor again does not divide any previous number. Finally, at 4, we have the distinct prime divisor 2, since 2 divides the product of the previous range {1, 2, 3}, we end the chain. Therefore 4 is the first term of this sequence.
We list row n of A217438 below, starting with n aligned in columns:
1 2 3
2 3
3 4 5
4 5 6 7
5 6 7
6 7
7 8 9 10 11
8 9 10 11
9 10 11
10 11 12 13 14
11 12 13 14 15
12 13 14 15
13 14 15
14 15
...
Adding 1 to the last numbers seen in all the rows, we generate the sequence A334468: {4, 6, 8, 12, 15, 16, ...}. Of these, we have greatest prime factors {2, 3, 2, 3, 5, 2, ...} with indices {1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 1, ...}.
