COMMENTS
'digit_sum' is the 'sum of the digits' as defined in A007953.
The number of terms < 10^k: 9, 20, 63, 160, 454, 1333, 3704, ..., .
So far, 3705 terms, 70.93% are congruent to 0 (mod 3), 8.26% congruent to 1 (mod 3) and 20.81% congruent to 2 (mod 3).

FORMULA
All numbers of the form 10^p are members; for n = 1-9, a(n)=n are trivial solutions.
EXAMPLE
57 is in the sequence because digit_sum(57) + digit_sum(57^2) + digit_sum(57^3) = 12 + 18 + 27 = 57. In this example, k is 3.
