Answer: n=2.
Note that if n=2, the sequence has the form ak=k(k+1) since consecutive numbers are always coprime. It is clear that k(k+1)<(k+1)(k+2), so the sequence is increasing.
First solution. Let us show that if n≥3 the sequence is not increasing from any number. Choose k=np where p is an arbitrary prime number greater than n. All numbers np+1,np+2,…,np+n−1 are not divisible by p and there is at least one even among them. The number n(p+1) is also not divisible by p and p+1 is even. Hence
ak=p⋅lcm(n,np+1,np+2,…,np+n−1),ak+1≤2p+1⋅lcm(n,np+1,np+2,…,np+n−1).
Therefore ak>ak+1 for k large enough and the sequence ak is not increasing from any number.
Second solution. We will show how else one can prove that for n≥3 the sequence is not increasing from any moment. Suppose that ak is increasing from number k0 then for all k≥k0 holds ak+1≥ak. Consider k=m!−n where m>max(n!+n,k0).
Denote lcm(k+1,…,k+n−1) by N. Then the inequality ak+1≥ak is equivalent to lcm(N,m!)>lcm(m!−n,N). Using the well known equality lcm(a,b)⋅gcd(a,b)=a⋅b we obtain the equivalence:
lcm(N,m!)>lcm(m!−n,N)⟺gcd(N,m!)N⋅m!>gcd(m!−n,N)(m!−n)⋅N,
or, after equivalent transformations,
n⋅gcd(N,m!)>m!⋅(gcd(N,m!)−gcd(m!−n,N)).(1)
It is clear that gcd(m!,m!−l)=gcd(m!,l)=l for all l from 1 to n−1, hence (n−1)!≥gcd(N,m!)≥lcm(1,2,…,n−1). Moreover, since m! is divisible by l, the number gcd(m!−n,m!−n+l)=gcd(n,n−l) is a divisor of n. So the number gcd(m!−n,N) is a divisor of n too. Indeed νp(N)=max(νp(m!−n+1),…,νp(m!−n+(n−1))) for any prime divisor p of N.
From obtained inequalities and (1) it follows that
n⋅(n−1)!>m!⋅(lcm(1,2,…,n−1)−n).(2)
Since lcm(1,2,…,n−1)≥(n−2)(n−1), for n≥4 the right hand side of (2) is not less than m! whence n!>m!, a contradiction.
If n=3 then gcd(N,m!)=gcd(m!−2,m!)=2. But
gcd(m!−n,N)=gcd(m!−3,(m!−2)(m!−1))=1,
so the inequality (1) will become 6>m! which is wrong.
