%N Numbers m such that phi(m-2) divides m-1 where phi is Euler's totient function (A000010).
%C The first 5 known Fermat primes from A019434 are in this sequence.
%C Corresponding values of numbers k(m) = (m-1) / phi(m-2): 2, 3, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, ...
%C Conjecture: 4 is the only number m such that 3*phi(m-2) = m-1. (See comment in A203966.)
%F a(n) = A203966(n+1) + 2. - _Max Alekseyev_, Feb 01 2024
%e 4 is in the sequence because phi(4-2) = 1 divides 4-1 = 3.
