COMMENTS

If you inspect PhiAnsYldList after running the program below, the zeros with even-numbered indices should correspond to the nontotients (A005277).

Where records occur in A014197. - T. D. Noe (noe(AT)sspectra.com), Jun 13 2006. Cf. A131934.

EXAMPLE

a(4) = 8 since phi(x) = 8 has the solutions {15, 16, 20, 24, 30}, one more solution than a(3) = 4 for which phi(x) = 4 has solutions {5, 8, 10, 12}.

MATHEMATICA

searchMax = 2000; phiAnsYldList = Table[0, {searchMax}]; Do[phiAns = EulerPhi[m]; If[phiAns <= searchMax, phiAnsYldList[[phiAns]]++ ], {m, 1, searchMax^2}]; highlyTotientList = {1}; currHigh = 1; Do[If[phiAnsYldList[[n]] > phiAnsYldList[[currHigh]], highlyTotientList = {highlyTotientList, n}; currHigh = n], {n, 2, searchMax}]; Flatten[highlyTotientList]
