Peter Munn: Actually, 1 is a maximal prime power divisor of 1, so the empty run of integers doesn't feature.

COMMENTS

Sequence A141808 consists of the terms of this sequence that are not prime powers.

EXAMPLE

The prime factorization of 60 is 2^2 * 3^1 * 5^1. Since 5^1 = 2^2 + 1 = 3^1 + 2 (i.e., the prime powers, in some order, occur in an arithmetic progression with a difference of 1 between consecutive terms), then 60 is included in the sequence.

NAME

If p^b(n,p) is the largest power of the prime p to divide n, then the positive integer n is included in the sequence if p(1)^b(n,p(1)) = p(2)^b(n,p(2))+1 = p(3)^b(n,p(3))+2 =...= p(k)^b(n,p(k))+k-1, where (p(1),p(2),p(3),...,p(k)) is some permutation of the distinct primes that divide n.

Numbers k such that the maximal prime power divisors of k form a run of integers.

COMMENTS

Old name and expanded definition: If p^b(n,p) is the largest power of the prime p to divide n, then the positive integer n is included in the sequence if p(1)^b(n,p(1)) = p(2)^b(n,p(2))+1 = p(3)^b(n,p(3))+2 =...= p(k)^b(n,p(k))+k-1, where (p(1),p(2),p(3),...,p(k)) is some permutation of the distinct primes that divide n.

Peter Munn: Do we say explicitly that the empty run of integers is included?

Peter Munn: I've had a look for sequences with a related definition that we could link A141807/8 to. Products of 3 prime powers in any arithmetic progression is not in the database - at least I couldn't find it, whether the primes in the powers need be distinct or not. Nearest by definition is possibly A262723.

Peter Munn: (Not a lot of point to us having spent time improving A141808, if hardly anyone gets to read it because it isn't linked to related sequences they are interested in.)
07:41
Peter Munn: For that matter, the name needs improving so that someone can recognise more easily that it might be a sequence they are interested in. I'll have a go.
