A327444 a(n) is the maximum absolute value of the coefficients of the quotient polynomial R_(prime(n)#)/Product_{j=1..n} R_(prime(j)), where prime(n)# is the n-th primorial number A002110(n) and R_k = (x^k - 1)/(x - 1).

Comments

The values of the first few quotients, when x=10, are in A323060. (A file therein enumerates the coefficients of the fifth quotient.)

Conjecture: a(n) = exp((6n - 13 + (-1)^n)/8), approximately.

Examples

			R_(510510)/[R_(2)*R_(3)*R_(5)*R_(7)*R_(11)*R_(13)*R_(17)] = 1 - 6x + 16x^2 - 25x^3 + ... - 34x^11313 + ... + x^510458 (and no other coefficient exceeds 34 in absolute value), so a(7) = 34.
