FORMULA

a(n) = MIN{A001019(i) such that n in decimal representation is a substring of A001019(i)}.

a(n) = 9^A062526(n). - Michel Marcus, Sep 30 2014

EXAMPLE

a(1) = 1 because 9^0 = 1 has "1" as a substring (not a proper substring, though).

a(2) = 729 because 9^3 = 729 has "2" as a substring.

a(3) = 531441 because 9^6 = 531441 has "3" as a substring.

MATHEMATICA

A176769[n_] := Block[{k = -1}, While[StringFreeQ[IntegerString[9^++k], IntegerString[n]]]; 9^k]; Array[A176769, 50, 0] (* Paolo Xausa, Apr 04 2024 *)
