Numbers whose sorted prime signature (A118914) is either of the form {2*p-1} or {1, p-1}, where p is a prime. Equivalently, disjoint union of numbers of the form q^(2*p-1) where p and q are primes, and numbers of the form r * q^(p-1), where p, q and r are primes and r != q. - Amiram Eldar, Sep 09 2024

If d(j(n)) is prime p then d(a(n+1)) must be properly divisible by p. In practice the proper divisor for computation of a(n+1) toggles between d(j(n)) and d(k).
Conjecture: This is a permutation of the positive integers. Numbers with the same number (tau) of divisors appear in their natural orders (e.g., primes, semiprimes, squares).
The plot, after the first few terms, resolves itself into points tightly packed on and around a straight line of slope 1, with exceptional points appearing as significant upward or downward "spikes".
When d(j(n)) is prime p appearing for the first time in the sequence J = {d(j(a(n)), n>=1}, then a(n+1) is the smallest number with 2p divisors, which produces a significantly large upward spike above the straight line (6, 12, 48, 192, 3072, 12288, ...).
When d(j(a(n)) is 2p, seen for the first time in J, then a(n+1) is the smallest number with p divisors, which produces a large downward spike, below the straight line (2, 4, 16, 64, 1024, 4096, ...).
The sequence of fixed points starts: 1, 46, 69, 74, 110, 140, 142, 152, 154, 178, ... apparently becoming denser as n increases.

Examples

			a(1)=1, so j(1)=2, d(j(1))=2, a prime, so we need the smallest unused k such that d(k) is properly divisible by 2, hence a(2)=6.
a(2)=6, j(2)=4, d(j(2))=3, a prime so we need the smallest unused k such that d(k) is properly divisible by 3, hence a(3)=8.
