a(n) for n >= 2 equals LCM of minimal and maximal exponents in prime factorization of n. a(n) for n >= 2 deviates from (A072411), first different term is a(360), a(360) = 3, A072411(360)= 6.

FORMULA
|
a(1) = 0, a(p) = 1, a(pq) = 1, a(pq...z) = 1, a(p^k) = k, for p = primes (A000040), pq = product of two distinct primes (A006881), pq...z = product of k (k > 2) distinct primes p, q, ..., z (A120944), p^k = prime powers (A000961(n) for n > 1) k = natural numbers (A000027).

EXAMPLE
|
For n = 12 = 2^2 * 3^1 we have a(12) = lcm(2,1) = 2.
For n = 144 = 2^4 * 3^2 we have a(144) = lcm(4,2) = 4.
