%N Minimum numbers whose phi of phi are multiples of the n-th prime: the n-th term is the minimum integer x such that: prime(n) | phi(phi(x)), prime(n) being the n-th prime.

%C These minimal integers are always prime. To be clear, the phi function referred to here is Euler's totient function.

%e The first term is 5. phi(5) = 4 and phi(4)=2. 2 is a multiple of the first prime 2. 5 is the lowest such number x where 2 divides phi(phi(x)).
