If p = (22*10^m - 13)/9 is prime, then 3^4*p is a term of the sequence. This happens for m = 1, 4, 7, 12, 30, 94, 178, 196, 564, ... .
a(7) > 3*10^12.
If k is in the sequence A102953 then p = (22*10^k - 13)/9 is prime. 9 divides all known terms; is it true for all terms of this sequence? - Farideh Firoozbakht, Feb 06 2014
EXAMPLE
k = 1979999883 = 3^4*24444443 is a term, since sigma(k) = 2957777724 and 4277777592 - 2957777724 = 1319999868 = phi(k).
