COMMENT

Or, a(n) = lim_k {s(k,n)} where s(k,n) is defined inductively on k by: s(1,n) = n; s(k+1,n) = 1 + phi(s(k,n)). - Joseph L. Pe (joseph_l_pe(AT)hotmail.com), Apr 30 2002

EXAMPLE

s(24,1) = 24, s(24,2) = 1 + phi(24) = 1 + 8 = 9, s(24,3) = 1 + phi(9) = 1 + 6 = 7, s(24,4) = 1 + phi(7) = 1 + 6 = 7,.... Therefore a(24) = lim_k {s(24,k)} = 7.

MATHEMATICA

f[n_] := FixedPoint[1 + EulerPhi[ # ] &, n]; Table[ f[n], {n, 1, 75}]
