Comments

Numbers n such that A000010(n-2) divides A000203(n-1)+1.

Supersequence of Fermat primes (A019434).

Conjecture: this sequence is finite.

Links

Table of n, a(n) for n=1..8.

Example

3 is in this sequence because phi(1) divides sigma(2)+1; 1 divides 4.
4 is in this sequence because phi(2) divides sigma(3)+1; 1 divides 5.
5 is in this sequence because phi(3) divides sigma(4)+1; 2 divides 8.
17 is in this sequence because phi(15) divides sigma(16)+1; 8 divides 32.
