  • Paper A

Consider the sequence of positive integers defined by s1,s2,s3,…s_1,s_2,s_3, \dotsc of positive integers defined by

  • s1=2s_1=2 , and[/*]
  • for each positive integer nn , sn+1s_{n+1} is equal to sns_n plus the product of prime factors of sns_n .[/*]

The first terms of the sequence are 2,4,6,12,18,242,4,6,12,18,24 . Prove that the product of the 20192019 smallest primes is a term of the sequence.
