A095386 Largest prime factor of peak values of 3x+1 trajectory started at n. 0

%I #6 Sep 04 2017 19:26:58

%S 2,2,2,2,2,13,2,13,2,13,2,5,13,5,2,13,13,11,5,2,13,5,3,11,5,577,13,11,

%N Largest prime factor of peak values of 3x+1 trajectory started at n.

%F a(n) = A006530(A025586(n)).

%e n=27: peak = 9232 = 2*2*2*2*577, so a(27)=577;

%e more extensive search suggests that all primes may occur as largest prime factor of peak.

%Y Cf. A006530, A025586.

%K nonn

%O 2,1
