%N Squarefree numbers k whose neighbors are neither squarefree nor prime powers.

%e Numbers k < 12 are not in the sequence since 12 is the smallest number in A126706.

%e 13 and 15 are not in the sequence since 14 is squarefree.

%e 17 is not in the sequence since 16 = 2^4.

%e a(1) = 19 since 19 is the smallest squarefree number such that 18 = 2*3^2 and 20 = 2*5^2 are not prime powers, but are divisible by a prime square.

%e a(2) = 51 since 50 = 2*5^2 and 52 = 2^2*13.

%e a(3) = 53 since 54 = 2*3^3.

%e a(4) = 55 since 56 = 7*2^3.

%e a(5) = 89 since 88 = 2^3*11 and 90 = 2*3^2*5, etc.
