COMMENTS
a(n) divides p^a(n) - 1 for all primes p >= 5. - Benoit Cloitre, Mar 22 2002
Also k such that Sum_{d divides k} mu(d)/d has numerator 1. - Benoit Cloitre, Apr 15 2002
k is here if and only if phi(k) also divides cototient(k). On the other hand, cototient(k) divides phi(k) if and only if k is a prime or power of a prime. - Labos Elemer, May 03 2002
It follows that k/phi(k) = 2 if k is a power of 2 and equal to 3 if k is of the form 6*A003586. - Gary Detlefs, Jun 28 2011
1 and even 3-smooth numbers, cf. A003586. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jan 06 2014
Numbers k such that k = (1+omega(k))*phi(k). - Farideh Firoozbakht, Oct 02 2014
These are the integers whose largest squarefree divisor is 1, 2 or 6. As such, this sequence is equal to the set V_infinite, defined as the intersection of the V_k for k >= 1, where V_k(x) = {phi_k(n) <= x} and phi_k is the k-th iterate of phi, the Euler function; for instance, V_1 is given by A002202 (see Theorem 7 in Pomerance and Luca). - Michel Marcus, Nov 09 2015
This sequence is contained in A068997. The terms of A068997 not in this sequence have largest squarefree divisor other than 1, 2, or 6, beginning with 10. - Torlach Rush, Dec 07 2017

FORMULA
k/phi(k) is an integer if and only if k = 1 or k = 2^w * 3^u for w > 0 and u >= 0.
k/phi(k) = 3 if and only if phi(k)|k and 3|k. - Thomas Ordowski, Nov 03 2014
a(n) is approximately exp(sqrt(2*log(2)*log(3)*n))/sqrt(3/2). - Charles R Greathouse IV, Nov 10 2015
From Amiram Eldar, Oct 29 2020: (Start)
a(n) = 2 * A003586(n) for n > 1.
Sum_{n>=1) 1/a(n) = 5/2. (End)
EXAMPLE
12 is in the sequence because 12/phi(12) = 12/4 = 3, which is an integer.
16 is in the sequence because 16/phi(16) = 16/8 = 2, which is an integer.
20 is not in the sequence because 20/phi(20) = 20/8 = 5/2 = 2.5, which is not an integer.
