%Y A132447 a(n) is the smallest member of A091250 at least 2^n. A132448(n) = a(n)-2^n, giving a more compact representation. Cf. A132449, similar, with restriction to at most 5 terms. Cf. A132451, similar, with restriction to exactly 5 terms. Cf. A132453, similar, with restriction to minimal number of terms.
