I was holding back these sequences, but Jon has forced my hand...

I proffer this as the "core sequence" for riffs.

%I A000000
%S A000000
0,1,2,2,3,3,3,3,3,4,4,4,4,4,5,3,4,4,4,5,5,5,4,5,4,5,4,5,5,6,5,4,6,5,6,5,
%T A000000
5,5,6,6,5,6,5,6,6,5,6,5,4,5,6,6,4,5,7,6,6,6,5,7,5,6,6,4,7,7,5,6,6,7,6,6,
%U A000000
6,6,6,6,7,7,6,6,4,6,5,7,7,6,7,7,6,7,7,6,7,7,7,6,5,5,7,6,6,7,5,7,8,5,6,6
%N A000000 Nodes in riff (rooted index-functional forest) for n.
%F A000000 a(PROD(p_i^e_i)) = SUM(a(i)+a(e_i)+1), product over nonzero e_i in
prime factorizati
on.
%H A000000 J. Awbrey, <a
href="http://www.research.att.com/~njas/sequences/a061396a.txt">Illust
rations of riffs for small integers</a>
%C A000000 A061396(n) gives number of times n appears in this sequence.
%K A000000 nonn,easy
%O A000000 1,3
%A A000000 dww

Here is Jon's sequence extended somewhat.  I am still looking to compute this
more quickly.

%I A000001
%S A000001 1,2,3,5,10,15,30,55,105,165,330,660,1155,2145,4290,7755,15015,30030,
%T A000001 54285,100815,201630,403260,705705
%N A000001 Smallest k with n nodes in its riff (rooted index-functional forest)
for n.
%K A000001 nonn
%O A000001 0,2
%C A000001 Smallest k with A000000(k) = n.
%A A000001 Jon Aubrey (jawbrey at oakland.edu), dww
