Since tau(k) + tau(k+1) + tau(k+2) = 10 and no three consecutive integers include more than one square, the triple (tau(k), tau(k+1), tau(k+2)) must consist of three even numbers, so it must be one of (2, 2, 6), (2, 4, 4), (2, 6, 2), (4, 2, 4), (4, 4, 2), and (6, 2, 2). Of these, (2, 2, 6) and (6, 2, 2) are impossible. Of the remaining patterns:
(2, 4, 4) requires that k be an odd prime other than 3, followed by two semiprimes, so k is a prime p such that (p+1)/2 and (p+2)/3 are also prime, and such primes are 13, 37, 157, 541, ... (A036570);
(2, 6, 2) requires that (k, k+2) be a twin prime pair whose average has exactly 6 divisors, and is thus either 12 or 18, so k is 11 or 17;
(4, 2, 4) requires that k+1 be an odd prime, with both k and k+2 having exactly 4 divisors, even though one of them is a multiple of 4, so that one is k+2 = 2^3 = 8, so k = 6;
(4, 4, 2) requires that k+2 be an odd prime > 3, preceded by two semiprimes, so k+2 is a prime p such that (p-1)/2 and (p-2)/3 are also prime, so k+2 is in {23, 59, 179, 383, ...} (which is A181841, after its first two terms, 7 and 11), so k is in {A181841(n) - 2} \ {5, 9}, i.e., k is in {21, 57, 177, 381, ...}.
Tau(k) + tau(k+1) + tau(k+2) >= 10 for all sufficiently large k; the only numbers k for which tau(k) + tau(k+1) + tau(k+2) < 10 are 1..5, 7, and 9.

Examples

			Each of the patterns (tau(k), ..., tau(k+2)) that appears repeatedly for large k corresponds to one of the two possible orders in which the multipliers m=1..3 can appear among 3 consecutive integers of the form m*prime. E.g., k=37 begins a run of 3 consecutive integers having the form (p, 2*q, 3*r), where p, q, and r are distinct primes > 3; k=57 begins a similar run, but there the 3 consecutive integers have the form (3*p, 2*q, r).
For each of the patterns of tau values that does not occur repeatedly for large k, one or more of the three consecutive integers in k..k+2 has no prime factor > 3; in the table below, each such integer appears in parentheses in the columns on the right.

It can be shown that if tau(k) + tau(k+1) + tau(k+2) + tau(k+3) = 16, the quadruple (tau(k), tau(k+1), tau(k+2), tau(k+3)) must be one of the following, each of which might plausibly occur infinitely often:
(2, 4, 4, 6), which first occurs at k = 12721, 16921, 19441, 24481, ... (A163573);
(2, 6, 4, 4), which first occurs at k = 19, 31, 211, 2731, ...;
(4, 4, 6, 2), which first occurs at k = 26, 1226, 2306, 12146, ...;
(6, 4, 4, 2), which first occurs at k = 20, 716, 1436, 5636, ...; ({A247347(n)-3}, other than its first term)
or one of the following, each of which occurs only once:
(2, 6, 2, 6), which occurs only at k = 17; and
(6, 2, 4, 4), which occurs only at k = 12.
Tau(k) + tau(k+1) + tau(k+2) + tau(k+3) >= 16 for all sufficiently large k; the only numbers k for which tau(k) + tau(k+1) + tau(k+2) + tau(k+3) < 16 are 1..11, 13, 14, and 16.

Examples

			The table below includes all terms k such that at least one of the four numbers k, k+1, k+2, k+3 has no prime factor > 5; each such number appears in parentheses in the columns under "factorization".
The table also includes, for each of the patterns (tau(k), tau(k+1), tau(k+2), tau(k+3)) that continues to appear for large k, the smallest such k for which each of the four numbers k, k+1, k+2, k+3 has a prime factor > 5. For each such quadruple, each of the four numbers is the product of a distinct multiplier m from 1..4 and a prime > 5, and each pattern corresponds to a distinct value of k mod 120: the tau patterns (2, 4, 4, 6), (2, 6, 4, 4), (4, 4, 6, 2), and (6, 4, 4, 2) correspond to k mod 120 = 1, 91, 26, and 116, respectively.

It can be shown that if tau(k) + ... + tau(k+4) = 20, the quintuple (tau(k), tau(k+1), tau(k+2), tau(k+3), tau(k+4)) must be one of the following, each of which might plausibly occur infinitely often:

(2, 4, 4, 8, 2), which occurs only at k = 37;
(2, 6, 6, 4, 2), which occurs only at k = 43.
Tau(k) + ... + tau(k+4) >= 20 for all sufficiently large k; the only numbers k for which tau(k) + ... + tau(k+4) < 20 are 1..11, 13, 15, 19, and 25.

Examples

			The table below lists each term k with a pattern (tau(k), ..., tau(k+4)) that appears only once (these appear at n = 1, 3, and 4), as well as each term k that is the smallest one having a pattern that appears repeatedly for large k (these are at n = 2, 6, 8, and 10). It also includes k = a(5) = 211, which is the smallest k that not only has a pattern that appears repeatedly for large k but also has each of k, ..., k+4 divisible by a prime > 5. (k = a(2) = 31 is a special case in that, while it and k = 211 share the same pattern of tau values, i.e., (2, 6, 4, 4, 4), their prime signatures differ at k+1: both 31+1=32 and 211+1=212 have 6 divisors, but 32 is a 5th power.)
Each of the repeatedly occurring patterns corresponds to one of the four possible orders in which the multipliers m=1..5 can appear among 5 consecutive integers of the form m*prime, and thus to a single residue of k modulo 120; e.g., k=2305 begins a run of 5 consecutive integers having the form (5*p, 2*q, 3*r, 4*s, t), where p, q, r, s, and t are distinct primes > 5, and all such runs satisfy k == 25 (mod 120).
For each of the patterns of tau values that does not occur repeatedly, and also for the special case k = 31, one or more of the five consecutive integers in k..k+4 has no prime factor > 5; each such integer appears in parentheses in the "factorization" columns.

The terms of the repeatedly occurring patterns form sequence A071368.
Tau(k) + ... + tau(k+5) >= 28 for all sufficiently large k; the only numbers k for which tau(k) + ... + tau(k+5) < 28 are 1..26, 29, 33, and 34.

Examples

			The table below lists each term k with a pattern (tau(k), ..., tau(k+5)) that appears only once (these appear at n = 1..8) as well as each term k that is the smallest one having a pattern that appears repeatedly for large k. (a(12)=6618242 is omitted from the table because it has the same pattern as a(9)=18362.)
Each of the repeatedly occurring patterns corresponds to one of the four possible orders in which the multipliers m=1..6 can appear among 6 consecutive integers of the form m*prime, and thus to a single residue of k modulo 2520; e.g., k=18362 begins a run of 6 consecutive integers having the form (2*p, 3*q, 4*r, 5*s, 6*t, 1*u), where p, q, r, s, t, and u are distinct primes > 6, and all such runs satisfy k == 722 (mod 2520).
For each of the patterns that does not occur repeatedly, one or more of the six consecutive integers in k..k+5 has no prime factor > 6; each such integer appears in parentheses in the "factorization" columns.

It can be shown that if tau(k) + ... + tau(k+6) = 32, the septuple (tau(k), tau(k+1), tau(k+2), tau(k+3), tau(k+4), tau(k+5), tau(k+6)) must be one of the following, each of which might plausibly occur infinitely often:
(2, 4, 4, 6, 4, 8, 4), which first occurs at k = 5516281, 18164161, 51755761, ... (A207825);
(2, 8, 4, 6, 4, 4, 4), which first occurs at k = 2914913, 9018353, 20239913, ...;
(4, 4, 4, 6, 4, 8, 2), which first occurs at k = 6618241, 81235441, 215206201, ...;
(4, 8, 4, 6, 4, 4, 2), which first occurs at k = 10780553, 45652313, 62198633, ...;
or one of the following, each of which occurs only once:
(6, 2, 6, 4, 4, 2, 8), which occurs only at k = 18;
(4, 4, 6, 2, 8, 2, 6), which occurs only at k = 26;
(4, 6, 2, 8, 2, 6, 4), which occurs only at k = 27;
(6, 2, 8, 2, 6, 4, 4), which occurs only at k = 28;
(2, 8, 4, 8, 4, 4, 2), which occurs only at k = 53;
(2, 4, 6, 6, 4, 8, 2), which occurs only at k = 73.
The terms of the repeatedly occurring patterns form sequence A071369.
Tau(k) + ... + tau(k+6) >= 32 for all sufficiently large k; the only numbers k for which tau(k) + ... + tau(k+6) < 32 are 1..17, 19..23, 25, 29, 31, 33, 37, and 41.

Examples

			The table below lists each term k with a pattern (tau(k), ..., tau(k+6)) that appears only once (these appear at n = 1..6) as well as each term k that is the smallest one having a pattern that appears repeatedly for large k. (a(10)=9018353 is omitted from the table because it has the same pattern as a(7)=2914913.)
Each of the repeatedly occurring patterns corresponds to one of the 4 possible orders in which the multipliers m=1..7 can appear among 7 consecutive integers of the form m*prime, and thus to a single residue of k modulo 2520; e.g., k=2914913 begins a run of 7 consecutive integers having the form (1*p, 6*q, 5*r, 4*s, 3*t, 2*u, 7*v), where p, q, r, s, t, u, and v are distinct primes > 7, and all such runs satisfy k == 1793 (mod 2520).
For each of the patterns that does not occur repeatedly, one or more of the seven consecutive integers in k..k+6 has no prime factor > 7; each such integer appears in parentheses in the columns under "factorization".
