COMMENTS

Considering this sequence is a natural sequel to the investigation of the problem when F_n is divisible by n (the numbers occurring in A023172). This sequence has several nice properties. (1) n | m implies a(n) | a(m) for arbitrary naturals n and m. This property is a direct consequence of the analogous well-known property of Fibonacci numbers. (2) gcd (a(n), a(m)) = a(gcd(n, m)) for arbitrary naturals n and m. Also this property follows directly from the analogous (perhaps not so well-known) property of Fibonacci numbers. (3) a(n) * a(m) | a(n * m) for arbitrary naturals n and m. This property is remarkable especially in the light that the analogous proposition for Fibonacci numbers fails if n and m are not relatively prime (e.g. F_3 * F_3 does not divide F_9). (4) The set of numbers satisfying a(n) = n is closed w.r.t. multiplication. This follows easily from (3).
