COMMENTS

The quotient A020492[n]/A002088[n] = SummatorySigma/SummatoryTotient as n increases seems to approach Pi^2/36 or Zeta(2))^2 [~2.705808084277845]. - Labos E. (labos(AT)ana.sote.hu), Sep 20 2004

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, 2^(A000043(n)-2)*(2^A000043(n)-1) is in the sequence. - Farideh Firoozbakht (mymontain(AT)yahoo.com), Nov 28 2005

Contribution from Enrique Perez Herrero (psychgeometry(AT)gmail.com), Sep 05 2010: (Start)

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. (End)

EXAMPLE

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