A246362 Numbers n such that if 2n-1 = product_{k >= 1} (p_k)^(c_k), then n < product_{k >= 1} (p_{k-1})^(c_k), where p_k indicates the k-th prime, A000040(k). 11

%N Numbers n such that if 2n-1 = product_{k >= 1} (p_k)^(c_k), then n < product_{k >= 1} (p_{k-1})^(c_k), where p_k indicates the k-th prime, A000040(k).

%C Numbers n such that A064216(n) > n.

%C Numbers n such that A064989(2n-1) > n.

%C The sequence grows as:

%C a(100) = 148

%C a(1000) = 1449

%C a(10000) = 14264

%C a(100000) = 141259

%C a(1000000) = 1418197

%C and the powers of 10 occur at:

%C a(5) = 10

%C a(63) = 100

%C a(701) = 1000

%C a(6973) = 10000

%C a(70845) = 100000

%C a(705313) = 1000000

%C suggesting that the ratio a(n)/n is converging to a constant and an arbitrary natural number is more than twice as likely to be here than in the complement A246361. Compare this to the ratio present in the "inverse" case A246282.
