COMMENT

a(n) is near the (n-1)th power of 2, the difference is A085355.

FORMULA

a(n)=Min{x; Floor[Log[2, (x+1)! ]]-Floor[Log[2, x! ]]=n}= Min{x; A084320(x)=n}.

EXAMPLE

a(3)=5 since between 5!=120 and 6!=720 is the first time 3 powers of 2 arise, namely, 128, 256 and 512.

MATHEMATICA

LogBase2Stirling[n_] := N[ Log[2, 2 Pi n]/2 + n*Log[2, n/E] + Log[2, 1 + 1/(12n) + 1/(288n^2) - 139/(51840n^3) - 571/(2488320n^4) + 163879/(209018880n^5)], 64]; k = 1; Do[ While[ Floor[ LogBase2Stirling[k + 1]] - Floor[ LogBase2Stirling[k]] < n, k++ ]; Print[k], {n, 1, 33}]
