COMMENT

If n is an even term of this sequence then 2n is also in the sequence. Because phi(2n)=2*phi(n)=2*phi(n+phi(n))=phi(2n+ 2*phi(n))=phi(2n+phi(2n)). So if n is an even term of this sequence then for each natural number m, 2^m*n is in the sequence. For example since 4 is in the sequence 2^n for each n, n>1 is in the sequence. If p is a Sophie Germain prime greater than 3 then n=2*p*(2p+1) is in the sequence because phi(n+phi(n))=phi(2*p*(2p+1)+2*p* (p-1))=phi(6p^2)=2*p*(p-1)=phi(n). Conjecture : Except for the first term all terms are even.

If n is in the sequence and the natural number m divides gcd(phi(n),n) then for all nonnegative integers k, m^k*n are in the sequence For example 110 is in the sequence and 10 divides gcd(phi(110),110) so 11*10^k for all natural numbers k are in the sequence. - Farideh Firoozbakht (mymontain(AT)yahoo.com), Dec 12 2005
