The quotient A020492(n)/A002088(n) = SummatorySigma/SummatoryTotient as n increases seems to approach Pi^4/36 or zeta(2)^2 [~2.705808084277845]. - Labos Elemer, Sep 20 2004, corrected by Charles R Greathouse IV, Jun 20 2012
If 2^p-1 is prime (a Mersenne prime) then m = 2^(p-2)*(2^p-1) is in the sequence because when p = 2 we get m = 3 and phi(3) divides sigma(3) and for p > 2, phi(m) = 2^(p-2)*(2^(p-1)-1); sigma(m) = (2^(p-1)-1)*2^p hence sigma(m)/phi(m) = 4 is an integer. So for each n, A133028(n) = 2^(A000043(n)-2)*(2^A000043(n)-1) is in the sequence. - Farideh Firoozbakht, Nov 28 2005
Phi and sigma are both multiplicative functions and for this reason if m and n are coprime and included in this sequence then m*n is also in this sequence. - Enrique Pérez Herrero, Sep 05 2010
The quotients sigma(n)/phi(n) are in A023897. - Bernard Schott, Jun 06 2017
There are 544768 balanced numbers < 10^14. - Jud McCranie, Sep 10 2017
a(975807) = 419998185095132. - Jud McCranie, Nov 28 2017

EXAMPLE
sigma(35) = 1+5+7+35 = 48, phi(35) = 24, hence 35 is a term.
