A350180 Numbers of multiplicative persistence 1 which are themselves the product of digits of a number. 9

%I #58 Mar 09 2022 00:35:13

%S 10,12,14,15,16,18,20,21,24,30,32,40,42,50,60,70,80,81,90,100,105,108,

%T 112,120,140,150,160,180,200,210,240,250,270,280,300,320,350,360,400,

%N Numbers of multiplicative persistence 1 which are themselves the product of digits of a number.

%C The multiplicative persistence of a number mp(n) is the number of times the product of digits function p(n) must be applied to reach a single digit, i.e., A031346(n).

%C The product of digits function partitions all numbers into equivalence classes. There is a one-to-one correspondence between values in this sequence and equivalence classes of numbers with multiplicative persistence 2.

%C There are infinitely many numbers with mp of 1 to 11, but the classes of numbers (p(n)) are postulated to be finite for subsequent sequences A350181..., but not for this sequence (where mp(p(n)) = 1). That is because there are infinitely many numbers that include both an even digit (2, 4, 6 or 8), a 5 and no 0. For these numbers n, p(n) will include a zero and p(p(n)) will be 0.

%C Equivalently: This sequence contains all numbers A007954(k) such that A031346(k) = 2, and they are the numbers k in A002473 such that A031346(k) = 1.

%C Or, they factor into powers of 2, 3, 5 and 7 exclusively and p(n) goes to a single digit in 1 step.

%e 10 is in this sequence because:

%e - 10 goes to a single digit in 1 step: p(10) = 0.

%e - 25, 52, 125, 152, 215, 512, 251, 521, 1125, 1152, 1215, 1512, 1251, 1521, 2115, 5112, 2511, 5211, etc. all lead to 10, i.e., p(25)=10, p(52)=10, etc.

%e Some of these (25, 125, 512, 1125, 1152, 1215, 1512) are in the next layer of classes, A350181, and the rest are not.

%e 12 is in this sequence because:

%e - 12 goes to a single digit in 1 step: p(12) = 2.

%e - 12, 21, 112, 211, 121, 11112, 11211, etc. all lead to 12.

%e (12, 21 and 112 are in the next layer of classes, A350181, but the rest are not)

%e 14 is in this sequence because:

%e - 14 goes to a single digit in 1 step: p(14) = 4.

%e - 27, 72, 127, 172, 217, 712, 271, 721, 12111711, etc. all lead to 14.

%e (27 and 72 are in the next layer of classes, A350181, the rest are not).
