Consider a number of k digits n = d_(k)*10^(k-1) + d_(k-1)*10^(k-2) + … + d_(2)*10 + d_(1). Sequence lists the numbers n such that phi(n) = Sum_{i=1..k-1}{sigma(Sum_{j=1..i}{d_(k-j+1)*10^(i-j)})} (see example below)

a(4) > 3*10^10. - Giovanni Resta, Apr 15 2014
EXAMPLE
If n = 16566, starting from the most significant digit, let us cut the number into the set 1, 16, 165, 1656. We have:
sigma(1) = 1;
sigma(16) = 31;
sigma(165) = 288;
sigma(1656) = 4680
and 1 + 31 + 288 + 4680 = 5000 = phi(16566).
