%N a(n)=least number having exactly n distinct prime factors, the largest of which is greater than or equal to sqrt(a(n)).
%F a(n)=y*(smallest prime that is larger than y), where y is the product of first n-1 consecutive primes.
%F a(n) = (n-1)# * NextPrime((n-1)#). a(n) = A002110(n-1) * NextPrime(A002110(n-1)). E.g. a(15) = 14# * 13082761331670077 = (2 * 3 * 5 * 7 * 11 * 13 * 17 * 19 * 23 * 29 * 31 * 37 * 41 * 43) + 13082761331670077, since 13082761331670077 = 14# + 47 is the least prime > 14#. - _Jonathan Vos Post_, Feb 13 2006
%e a(3)=42; indeed, 42=2*3*7, 7>sqrt(42) and 2*3*5 does not qualify because
%e 5<sqrt(30).
%p a:=n->product(ithprime(j),j=1..n-1)*nextprime(product(ithprime(j),j=1..n-1)): seq(a(n),n=1..16);
%Y Cf. A115956, A115957, A115958, A115959, A115960.
%Y Cf. A002110.
