Comments

The sequence is finite since for all large enough n, we have tau(n) < n^(1/4) and phi(n) > n^(3/4) while, if x < y are the legs of a Pythagorean triangle, we always have y < x^2/2. - Giovanni Resta, Jul 27 2019

The sequence is likely complete. If a(6) exists, it satisfies tau(a(6)) > 1000. - Max Alekseyev, Sep 30 2023

Example

60 is in this sequence because tau(60) = 12 and phi(60) = 16, legs of the Pythagorean triple {12, 16, 20} (12^2 + 16^2 = 20^2).
