COMMENT

a(1) = 1, a(2) = (2*1)/1 = 2; a(n+1) = a(n)*(the smallest prime divisor of (n+1) divided by the largest prime divisor of a(n)). - Amarnath Murthy (amarnath_murthy(AT)yahoo.com), Nov 28 2004

a(n) = the maximum number of integers such that all pairwise differences are coprime to n. - Max Alekseyev (maxal(AT)cs.ucsd.edu), Mar 17 2006

Also, except for the first term, the smallest prime dividing n. - Cino Hilliard (pseudo.t(AT)comcast.net), Dec 08 2006
