Although 0 is a valid number, we don't allow the trivial decomposition n = concat(0, n) except for the single-digit n < 10, otherwise the minimal product would always be 0. %C A347470 For n < 111, this sequence coincides with A035930 (same with "largest"), because there is only one possible concatenation, but it differs for n > 111, cf. examples. %H A347470 Eric Angelini, <a href="https://cinquantesignes.blogspot.com/2021/08/surface-of-number.html">Surface of a number</a>, Sep 01 2021. %e A347470 The number n = 112 is the concatenation of 1 and 12, or of 11 and 2, with respective products 1*12 = 12 and 11*2 = 22. Hence, a(112) = 12, while A035930(112) = 22. %o A347470 (PARI) apply( {A347470(x,t(b,c)=if(c\10<=b%c,b\c*(b%c),c>10,oo))= if(x>9,vecmin(vector(logint(x,10),j,t(x,10^j))))}, [0..112]) %Y A347470 Cf.
