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”).

A247203
Primes p such that phi(p-2) = phi(p-1) and simultaneously Product_{d|(p-2)} phi(d) = Product_{d|(p-1)} phi(d) where phi(x) = Euler totient function (A000010).

COMMENTS
Primes p such that A000010(p-2) = A000010(p-1) and simultaneously A029940(p-2) = A029940(p-1).
The first 5 known Fermat primes (A019434) are terms of this sequence.
Supersequence of A247164 and A248796.
EXAMPLE
17 is in the sequence because phi(15) = phi(16) = 8 and simultaneously Product_{d|15} phi(d) = Product_{d|16} phi(d) = 64.
