COMMENT

To minimize the sum of the parts whose product is k, all k, a(n) <= k < a(n+1) should be split into n parts.

FORMULA

a(n) = ceiling[((n+1)/n)^((n+1)*n)]

EXAMPLE

a(2) = 12 because 2*sqrt(11) is less than 3*cuberoot(11), but 2*sqrt(12) is more than 3*cuberoot(12). a(3) = 32 because 3*cuberoot(31) is less than 4*fourthroot(31), but the inequality reverses at 32.
