%N Numbers m whose k-th arithmetic derivative is zero for some k. Complement of A099309.

%C The first derivative of 0 and 1 is 0. The second derivative of a prime number is 0.

%C For all n, A003415(a(n)) is also a term of the sequence. A351255 gives the nonzero terms as ordered by their position in A276086. - _Antti Karttunen_, Feb 14 2022

%D See A003415.

%F For all n >= 0, A328309(a(n)) = n. - _Antti Karttunen_, Feb 14 2022

%e 18 is on this list because the first through fifth derivatives are 21, 10, 7, 1, 0.

%o \\ The following program would get stuck in nontrivial loops. However, we assume that the conjecture 3 in Ufnarovski & Ã…hlander paper holds ("The differential equation n^(k) = n has only trivial solutions p^p for primes p").

%Y Cf. also A256750 (number of iterations needed to reach either 0 or a number with a factor of the form p^p), A327969, A351088.

%Y Union of A359544 and A359545.
