Comments

All terms are squarefree numbers (A005117).

a(n) >> exp(n/2); presumably finite. If a(6) exists then a(6) > 10^200000. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jul 13 2024

Formula

From Alois P. Heinz, Jul 13 2024: (Start)

a(n) = A000194(A161620(n)).

A002378(a(n)) = A161620(n). (End)

Example

714 is a term because 714*715 = 510510 = A002110(7) = 2*3*5*7*11*13*17.
