Comments

First differs from A212167 in lacking 1080, with prime indices {1,1,1,2,2,2,3}.

First differs from A335433 in lacking 72 (see example).

A squarefree semiprime (A006881) is a product of any two distinct prime numbers.

The following are equivalent characteristics for any positive integer n:

(1) the prime factors of n can be partitioned into distinct singletons and strict pairs, i.e., into a set of half-loops and edges;

(2) n can be factored into distinct primes or squarefree semiprimes;

(3) the prime signature of n is half-loop-graphical.

Examples

			The sequence of terms together with their prime indices begins:
       1: {}           20: {1,1,3}        39: {2,6}
       2: {1}          21: {2,4}          41: {13}
       3: {2}          22: {1,5}          42: {1,2,4}
       5: {3}          23: {9}            43: {14}
       6: {1,2}        26: {1,6}          44: {1,1,5}
       7: {4}          28: {1,1,4}        45: {2,2,3}
      10: {1,3}        29: {10}           46: {1,9}
      11: {5}          30: {1,2,3}        47: {15}
      12: {1,1,2}      31: {11}           50: {1,3,3}
      13: {6}          33: {2,5}          51: {2,7}
      14: {1,4}        34: {1,7}          52: {1,1,6}
      15: {2,3}        35: {3,4}          53: {16}
      17: {7}          36: {1,1,2,2}      55: {3,5}
      18: {1,2,2}      37: {12}           57: {2,8}
      19: {8}          38: {1,8}          58: {1,10}
For example, we have 36 = (2*3*6), so 36 is in the sequence. On the other hand, a complete list of all strict factorizations of 72 is: (2*3*12), (2*4*9), (2*36), (3*4*6), (3*24), (4*18), (6*12), (8*9), (72). Since none of these consists of only primes or squarefree semiprimes, 72 is not in the sequence. A complete list of all factorizations of 1080 into primes or squarefree semiprimes is:
  (2*2*2*3*3*3*5)
  (2*2*2*3*3*15)
  (2*2*3*3*3*10)
  (2*2*3*3*5*6)
  (2*2*3*6*15)
  (2*3*3*6*10)
  (2*3*5*6*6)
  (2*6*6*15)
  (3*6*6*10)
  (5*6*6*6)
Since none of these is strict, 1080 is not in the sequence.
