Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

A099648
Largest term arising in complete-iteration-list (both transient and cycle) when f(x) = A003132(x) is iterated, i.e., if digit-squares of iterate added repeatedly until steady state (= either cycle or fixed point) is reached.

EXAMPLE
n=2: list = {2,4,16,37,58,89,145,42,20,4,16,37,58,...}; a(2) = max(list) = 145;
For n < 145, max > initial value except few cases. See A099649.
