A348717 a(n) is the least k such that A003961^i(k) = n for some i >= 0 (where A003961^i denotes the i-th iterate of A003961). 69

COMMENTS
All terms except a(1) = 1 are even.
To compute a(n) for n > 1:
- if n = Product_{j = 1..o} prime(p_j)^e_j (where prime(i) denotes the i-th prime number, p_1 < ... < p_o and e_1 > 0)
- then a(n) = Product_{j = 1..o} prime(p_j + 1 - p_1)^e_j.
This sequence has similarities with A304776: here we shift down prime indexes, there prime exponents.
Smallest number generated by uniformly decrementing the indices of the prime factors of n. Thus, for n > 1, the smallest m > 1 such that the first differences of the indices of the ordered prime factors (including repetitions) are the same for m and n. As a function, a(.) preserves properties such as prime signature. - Peter Munn, May 12 2022

FORMULA
a(n) = n iff n belongs to A004277.
A003961^(A055396(n)-1)(a(n)) = n for any n > 1.
a(n) = 2 iff n belongs to A000040 (prime numbers).
a(n) = 4 iff n belongs to A001248 (squares of prime numbers).
a(n) = 6 iff n belongs to A006094 (products of two successive prime numbers).
a(n) = 8 iff n belongs to A030078 (cubes of prime numbers).
a(n) = 10 iff n belongs to A090076.
a(n) = 12 iff n belongs to A251720.
a(n) = 14 iff n belongs to A090090.
a(n) = 16 iff n belongs to A030514.
a(n) = 30 iff n belongs to A046301.
a(n) = 32 iff n belongs to A050997.
a(n) = 36 iff n belongs to A166329.
a(1) = 1, for n > 1, a(n) = 2*A246277(n). - Antti Karttunen, Feb 23 2022
a(n) = A122111(A243074(A122111(n))). - Peter Munn, Feb 23 2022
From Peter Munn and Antti Karttunen, May 12 2022: (Start)
a(1) = 1; a(2n) = 2n; a(A003961(n)) = a(n). [complete definition]
a(n) = A005940(1+A322993(n)) = A005940(1+A000265(A156552(n))).
Equivalently, A156552(a(n)) = A000265(A156552(n)).
A297845(a(n), A020639(n)) = n.
A046523(a(n)) = A046523(n).
A071364(a(n)) = A071364(n).
a(n) >= A071364(n).
A243055(a(n)) = A243055(n).
