a(n) <= A075421(n); a(n) = A075421(n) iff the trajectory of A075421(n) does not join the trajectory of any smaller number, i.e., A075421(n) is also a term of A091675.
a(n) determines a 1-1-mapping from the terms of A075421 to the terms of A091675. For the inverse mapping cf. A091677.
Base-4 analog of A089493.
EXAMPLE
A075421(1) = 290, the trajectory of 290 (A075299) joins the trajectory of 266 = A091675(12) at 4195, so a(1) = 266. A075421(6) = 1210, the trajectory of 1210 joins the trajectory of 269 = A091675(13) at 17975, so a(6) = 269.

Terms a(9) to a(29) are 205796147 (conjectured), 4402, 16720, 1089448, 442, 537, unknown, 1050177, 1575, 28822, unknown, 40573, 1066, 1587, unknown, unknown, 1081, 1082, 1085, 1115, 4185.
a(n) >= A092210(n); a(n) = A092210(n) iff the trajectory of A092210(n) is palindrome-free, i.e., A092210(n) is also a term of A075252.
a(n) determines a 1-to-1 mapping from the terms of A092210 to the terms of A075252, the inverse of the mapping determined by A092211.
The 1-to-1 property of the mapping depends on the conjecture that the base-2 Reverse and Add! trajectory of each term of A092210 contains only a finite number of palindromes (cf. A092215).
Base-2 analog of A089494 (base 10) and A091677 (base 4).
EXAMPLE
A092210(3) = 64, the trajectory of 64 joins the trajectory of 89 at 48480, so a(3) = 89. A092210(5) = 98, the trajectory of 98 joins the trajectory of 3599 = A075252(16) at 401104704, so a(5) = 3599.
