COMMENTS

sigma is the multiplicative sum-of-divisors function.

phi is Euler's totient.

Complete through 25558816403 .

All given here are products of powers of consecutive Fermat primes based on generalized repunit primes; see links.

It is conjectured (see links) that all odd solutions are of this form, for which at least 10130 solutions are known.

EXAMPLE

sigma(9) = 13, phi(9) = 6, sigma(6) = phi(13) = 12, so 9 is in the sequence.
