Comments

The idea of this sequence comes from a remark of Amiram Eldar in Discussion section of A327750 (m + pod(m) = k with pod(k) = pod(m)) in September 2019.

Question: is it possible to get a longer string of integers with this rule?

From David A. Corneth, Feb 01 2021: (Start)

The product of digits of a(n) is a multiple of 6. In terms below 10^10 however all products of digits of a(n) are a multiple of 36. Is that product a multiple of 36 for all a(n)?

The least term k such that k + 6 is here is k = 56516718. Are there consecutive terms that differ by less than 6? (End)

Example

262713 + pod(262713) = 262713 + 504 = 263217, whose product of digits is also 504, and 263217 + 504 = 263721 whose product of digits is again 504; hence, m=262713, k=263217, q=263721 and pod(m)=pod(k)=pod(q)=504, so 262713 is a term.

Mathematica

pod[n_] := Times @@ IntegerDigits[n]; seqQ[n_] := Module[{p = pod[n], k, q}, k = n + p; q = k + pod[k]; p > 0 && Equal @@ {p, pod[k], pod[q]}]; Select[Range[2*10^6], seqQ] (* Amiram Eldar, Jan 26 2021 *)
