COMMENTS
Corollary 1 in Riasat (2011), "every positive integer divides infinitely many Fibonacci numbers," demonstrates that this sequence is infinite. - Alonso del Arte, Jul 27 2013
Note that F(0)=0 is divisible by any n > 0, hence "positive" is added in NAME. - Zak Seidov, Jan 07 2016

FORMULA
a(A000045(k)) = A000045(k), for k > 0. - Altug Alkan, Jan 07 2016
a(n) = n * A037943(n). - Alois P. Heinz, Jan 08 2017
EXAMPLE
Fibonacci(12) = 144 is the first Fibonacci number that is divisible by 6, so a(6) = 144.
