Over ten years ago, I submitted A064078 - A064083 and invented the name
"Zsigmondy number Zs(n, a, b)" for their elements. To my surprise, I
found this name (along with a reference to the first of my sequences) a
few years later on MathWorld under
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/ZsigmondyTheorem.html - it feels like the
name somehow got "promoted" this way.
