a(8) > 6.5*10^10, if it exists.
a(8) <= 604912797077420. - David A. Corneth, Aug 06 2022
EXAMPLE
a(2) = 819 since 819 = 3^2 * 7 * 13 and 820 = 2^2 * 5 * 41 both have an equal sum of even and odd exponents (2) in their prime factorization, 818 and 821 have no even exponent, and 819 is the least number with this property.
