COMMENT

Analogous to A053025, A053034, A053044. For comparison: iteration of e.g. A000005 to primorial i.v. is trivially computable: q(n)=A002110(n),d[q(n)]=2^n, d[d[q(n)]]=n+1 and so A036450[A002110(n)]=A000005(n+1).

FORMULA

a(n) is the smallest number such that Nest[EulerPhi, A002110, a(n)]=1

EXAMPLE

n=7, A002110(7)=510510; the corresponding iteration chain is: {510510,92160,24576,8192,4096,2048,1024,512,256,128,64,32,16,8,4,2,1}.Its length is 17, so the required number of iterations is a(7)=16.

CROSSREFS

A000010, A002110.
