Comments

The initial terms coincide with those of A170769, although the two sequences are eventually different.

First disagreement at index 19: a(19) = 132586542292982673588951169078825, A170769(19) = 132586542292982673588951169080050. - Klaus Brockhaus, Apr 01 2011

Computed with MAGMA using commands similar to those used to compute A154638.
