A328830 The second prime shadow of n: a(1) = 1; for n > 1, a(n) = a(A003557(n)) * prime(A056169(n)) when A056169(n) > 0, otherwise a(n) = a(A003557(n)).

Comments

a(n) depends only on prime signature of n (cf. A025487).

Examples

			For n = 30 = 2 * 3 * 5, there are three unitary prime factors, while A003557(30) = 1, which terminates the recursion, thus a(30) = prime(3) = 5.
For n = 60060 = 2^2 * 3 * 5 * 7 * 11 * 13, there are 5 unitary prime factors, while in A003557(60060) = 2 there is only one, thus a(60060) = prime(5) * prime(1) = 11 * 2 = 22.
The number 1260 = 2^2*3^2*5*7 has prime exponents (2,2,1,1) so its prime shadow is prime(2)*prime(2)*prime(1)*prime(1) = 36.  Next, 36 = 2^2*3^2 has prime exponents (2,2) so its prime shadow is prime(2)*prime(2) = 9. In fact, the term a(1260) = 9 is the first appearance of 9 in the sequence. - _Gus Wiseman_, Apr 28 2022
