COMMENT

Using in the prime decomposition of n all the consecutive primes upto the higher prime divisor,null power admitted except for the last one

n=(p(1)^a1)*(p(2)^a2)*.......*(p(k)^ak) (ak>0, others ai>=0 and p(n) =n-th prime)

we reverse the sequence a1,a2,... ak to build c(n):

c(n)= (p(1)^ak)*(p(2)^a(k-1))* . . . . *(p(k)^a1)

As p(1)=2 and ak =/=0, c(n) is always even

If n is prime a(n) =2 and if n is a power of prime, a(n) is the same power of 2

If the sequence a1,a2,. . . . ak is palindromic, a(n)=n

For any given even number Q, we can by reversing the sequence of its powers define not only one but an infinity (by adding as many zeros as we want on the left end) of n such that c(n)=Q. Hence the sequence is a permutation of even integers where each even integer is infinitely repeated.

For example as Q=1224=(2^3)*(3^2)*(5^0)*(7^0)*(11^0)*(13^0)*(17^1),

Q =a((2^1)*(3^0)*(5^0)*(7^0)*(11^0)*(13^2)*(17^3))=a(1660594) but also of an infinity of other ones, the first one being a((2^0)*(3^1)*(5^0)*(7^0)*(11^0)*(13^0)*(17^2)*(19^1))=a(5946753)

EXAMPLE

n=9=(2^0)*(3^2), hence a(9) = (2^2)*(3^0)=4
