A291051 a(n) is the smallest number k such that psi(k) = n*phi(k) where psi(k) is Dedekind psi function (A001615) and phi(k) is Euler totient function (A000010), or 0 if no such k exists.

Comments

Also a(n) is the smallest squarefree number k such that sigma(k) = n*phi(k), or 0 if no such k exists.

It is conjectured that A055234(n) > 0 for each n. Is a(n) > 0 for all values of n?

Table of n, a(n) for n=1..25.

Example

a(4) = 14 since psi(14) / phi(14) = 24 / 6 = 4 and 14 is the least number with this property.

Mathematica

psi[n_] := n*Sum[MoebiusMu[d]^2/d, {d, Divisors@n}]; f[n_] := Block[{k = 1}, While[ n*EulerPhi[k] != psi[k], k++]; k]; Array[f, 22] (* Robert G. Wilson v, Sep 15 2017 *)
