n is necessarily composite.

From the Math. Rev.: if both q=7*2^{r-2}+2^s-1 and p=49*2^{2r-s-4}+7*2^{r-2}-5*2^{r-s-2}-1 are prime for 1 <= s < r-2, then n=2^r*3*p*q is a solution to the equation phi(n)+sigma(n)=3n . [R. K. Guy]

If 7*2^n-1 is prime then m = 2^(n+2)*3*(7*2^n-1) is in the sequence. Because phi(m) = 2^(n+2)*(7*2^n-2); sigma(m) = 7*2^(n+2)*(2^(n+3)-1) so phi(m)+sigma(m) = 2^(n+2)*((7*2^n-2)+(7*2^(n+3)-7)) = 2^(n+2)*(63*2^n-9) = 3*(2^(n+2)*3*(7*2^n-1)) = 3*m. Hence A112729 = 2^(A001771+2)*3*(7*2^A001771-1) is a subsequence of this sequence. - Farideh Firoozbakht, Dec 01 2005

If both numbers p=7*2^n+2^k-1 & q=49*2^(2n-k)+2^(n-k)*(7*2^k-5)-1 are prime and m=2^(n+2)*3*p*q then phi(m)+sigma(m)=3*m. Namely m is in the sequence. - Farideh Firoozbakht, Jan 11 2007
