COMMENTS
The numbers 2^i*3^j and 2^j*3^i have the same number of ways to represent them as a product of the greatest number of distinct divisors. Therefore each term of the sequence is a number of the form 2^i*3^j for which i>=j>=0.
EXAMPLE
a(5) = 2^7*3^3 = 3456 because 3456 = 1*2*3*4*6*24 = 1*2*3*4*8*18 = 1*2*3*4*9*16 = 1*2*3*6*8*12 = 1*2*4*6*8*9 and each number of the form 2^i*3^j (i, j >= 0) less than 3456 does not have 5 representations as a product of the greatest number of distinct positive integers.
