COMMENTS

After 24, there are no more terms < 10^6. Are there any more terms?

This sequence is certainly finite and very likely complete. phi(n) is bounded below asymptotically by n/log log n * e^{-gamma}, while prime gaps are known to be bounded asymptotically above by p^{1/3} ~ (n log n)^(1/3). - Frank Adams-Watters (FrankTAW(AT)Netscape.net), Jul 27 2006

EXAMPLE

p(13)-p(12) = 41 - 37 = 4 = EulerPhi(12); so 12 belongs to the sequence.

MATHEMATICA

f[n_] := Prime[n + 1] - Prime[n]; Select[Range[1, 10^6], f[ # ] == EulerPhi[ # ] &]
