Ulas and Ulas conjecture that all primes are here. The nonprime n are in A186892. See A186886 for the least number having n prime factors.

			B(11,t) = t^2 + 3t + 1 which is irreducible, so a(11) = 1.
B(12,t) = t^3 + t^2 = t^2(t+1), so a(12) = 3.

Differs from A001222 for the first time at n=25, where a(25)=1. A277190 gives the positions of differing terms.

A277013 = n -> vecsum(factor(ps(n))[,2]);

a(n) = A277322(A260443(n)).

It seems that for all n >= 1, a(2^n) = n.
