COMMENTS
Any finite cycle in A019565, if such cycles exist at all, must have at least one member that occurs somewhere in this sequence, although certainly not all terms of this sequence could occur in a finite cycle. Specifically, such a number n must occur also in consecutively nested subsequences A285317, A285319, ..., and in general, it should satisfy A019565(n) < n and that A048675^{k}(n) is squarefree for all k = 0 .. ∞.
