Let f denote the map that replaces k by the concatenation of its proper divisors, written in decreasing order, each divisor being written in base 10 with its digits in reverse order. Then a(n) = prime reached when starting at 2n+1 and iterating f. |

COMMENT
|
If 2n+1 is 1 or a prime, set a(n) = 2n+1. If no prime is ever reached, set a(n) = -1.
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
n = 13: 2n+1 = 27 has proper divisors 3 and 9, so we get 93, which has proper divisors 3 and 31, so we get 133.
Then 133 has proper divisors 7 and 19, so we get 917.
Then 917 has proper divisors 7 and 131, so we get 1317.
Then 1317 has proper divisors 3 and 439, so we get 9343, a prime, and a(13) = 9343.
