Comments

This sequence assumes that the Erdos conjecture is true, that iterating k -> sigma(k)-1 always reaches a prime (cf. A039654).

Formula

Let f(k) = A000203(k)-1 = sigma(k) - 1, lambda(y) = 3y+2 mod 5 for y in Y = {0,1,2,3,4}, and alpha(k) = k mod 5 for k in Omega = {primes}. Here sigma is the sum of divisors function A000203.

Then a(n) for n >= 2 is defined by a(n) = alpha(n) if n in Omega, and otherwise by a(n) = lambda(a(f(n))).
