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. 1

%N 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.

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

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

%C 10^12 < a(26) <= 50353622409090. - _Giovanni Resta_, Aug 18 2017

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