COMMENTS
The initial terms coincide with those of A003951, although the two sequences are eventually different.
First disagreement at index 20: a(20) = 1297036692682702812, A003951(20) = 1297036692682702848. - Klaus Brockhaus, Apr 01 2011
Computed with MAGMA using commands similar to those used to compute A154638.
