COMMENTS
Makowski proved that phi(k) + sigma(k) = k*d(k) if and only if k is a prime (see in Sivaramakrishnan, Chapter I, page 8, Theorem 3). Generally, when phi(k) + sigma(k) = m*d(k) there are special cases in which phi(k) + sigma(k) is divisible by higher powers of the number of divisors d(k).
This sequence is infinite: it includes all the semiprimes p*q such that p == 1 (mod 128), and q == 127 (mod 128). - Amiram Eldar, Mar 25 2024

FORMULA
Integer solutions of phi(x) + sigma(x) = m * d(x)^4 or A000010(x) + A000203(x) = m * A000005(k)^4, where m is an integer.
EXAMPLE
511 is a term since it has 4 divisors, phi(511) = 432, sigma(511) = 592, and 432 + 592 = 1024 = 4 * 4^4.
