COMMENTS

Obviously C(p)=(p-eulerphi(p))/(p-1) = 1/(p-1), i.e. A160598(p)=1, for all primes p. This sequence lists composite numbers for which C(n) has denominator 1, i.e. n-1 is a multiple of n-eulerphi(n).

The sequence contains numbers F(k)*F(k+1)*...*F(k+d), if the factors are successive Fermat primes F(k)=2^(2^k)+1.

EXAMPLE

a(1)=15 is in the sequence, because for n=15, we have (n-eulerphi(n))/(n-1) = (15-8)/14 = 1/2; Apart from the primes, this is the smallest number such that C(n) is a unit fraction.
