COMMENT
|
The maximum possible magnitude of the x^n coefficient is A138474(n). Note that a(0)=0 because we assume Phi(0,x)=1; another convention has Phi(0,x)=x, which would force a(0) and a(1) to be reversed.
It appears that (1) for n>80, a(n) has an even number of prime factors, and (2) for prime n>80, n divides a(n). Terms up to n=128 were found by exhaustive search; subsequent terms were found by a much faster high-climbing method.

EXAMPLE

a(7)=105 because the cyclotomic polynomial Phi(105,x) has the term -2x^7.
