COMMENTS

A002110(n) divides b^(a(n)+1) - b, where b is an arbitrary integer. - Thomas Ordowski, Nov 24 2014

What is the asymptotic growth of this sequence? a(n) <= A005867(n) <= A002110(n) < e^((1 + o(1))n log n) but this is a large overestimate. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Dec 03 2014

FORMULA

a(n) = A002322(A002110(n)). - Thomas Ordowski, Nov 24 2014

EXAMPLE

For n = 5 and 6: a(5) = a(6) = LCM[1, 2, 4, 6, 10, 12] = 60.
