%N An arithmetic progression of at least 6 terms having the same value of phi starts at these numbers.

%C From _Mauro Fiorentini_, Apr 12 2015 (Start):

%C The following are all the terms between 13413600 and 10^9 with increment <= 1000:

%C 13996800, 14580000, 15163200, 15746400, 16329600, 16912800, 17496000, 18079200, 18662400, 19245600, 65621220, 85731240, 131242440, 165488430, 171462480, 196863660, 257193720, 262484880, 330976860, 342924960, 496465290, 504932430, 544924830, 661953720, 827442150, 892306830, 992930580.

%C (End)

%C If phi is constant on the arithmetic progression A = [x, x+d, ..., x+m*d], and k is an integer such that each prime factor of k divides either all members of A or no members of A, then phi is also constant on the arithmetic progression k*A = [x*k, x*k+d*k, ..., x*k+m*(d*k)]. - _Robert Israel_, Apr 12 2015

%C The a.p. of 7 terms starting at 1158419010 with increment 210 have the same value of phi. - _Robert Israel_, Apr 15 2015

%C a(n) = 583200*n for n <= 112, but a(113) = 65621220. - _Robert Israel_, May 10 2015
