A028416(1)=7; A002371(A049084(7))=A002371(4)=6: a(n+6)=a(n), a(n+6/2)=9-a(n). [From Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Oct 06 2008]

142857 and 999999=7*142857 are first and last Kaprekar numbers with six digits. Note a(n)+a(n+3)=9. (142857^2 = 20408122449; 20408+122449 = 142857). a(n)^2 = 1, 16, 4, 64, 25, 49,... [From Paul Curtz (bpcrtz(AT)free.fr), Aug 24 2009]

The constant 19 +1/7 = 19.142857.. is the Kirchhoff index of the Moebius ladder graph on v=8 vertices. The laplacian matrix has the eigenvalues 4 (one times), 4-sqrt(2) (2 times), 4+sqrt(2) (2 times), 2 (2 times) and 0 (one times). Then the Kirchhoff index is v times the sum over the inverse, non-zero eigenvalues. - R. J. Mathar, Feb 13 2011
