FORMULA

a(n) = ceiling(1/(2^(1/n)-1)). For most n, a(n) is the nearest integer to n/log(2), but there are exceptions, including n=777451915729368.

EXAMPLE

a(2)=3 as 2^2=4, 3^2=9 and 4^2=16.

PROGRAM

(PARI) for (n=2, 50, x=2; while (2*x^n<=((x+1)^n), x++); print1(x", "))

CROSSREFS

Cf. A078608, A078609.
