COMMENTS

n = 10^k is a member of the sequence, for all k >= 0. Proof: Let n = 10^k for some nonnegative integer k. Then n^n - 1 has k*10^k 9's and no other digits, so its digits sum to 9*k*10^k = 9*k*n, a multiple of n.

EXAMPLE

The digits of 9775^9775 - 1 sum to 175950 and 175950 is divisible by 9775, so 9775 is in the sequence.

MATHEMATICA
