%N A057564 Natural numbers n for which the following three properties hold: (i)
Phi[Sigma[n]]=2*Phi[n], (ii) Sigma[n-2]=2*Sigma[Phi[n-2]], (iii)
Sigma[n+2]=2*Sigma[Phi[n+2]].
%C A057564 Called "Beastly neighbors" because 666 is the least element of the sequence
and because these numbers are seen to have a symmetric relationship
with their two "neighbors," using analogy to numbering houses on
the same side of the street (e.g. 664 and 668 are "neighbors" of
666).

%e A057564 Phi[Sigma[666]]=Phi[1482]=432=2*216=2*Phi[666], Sigma[664]=1260=2*630=2*Sigma[328]=Sigma[Phi[664]],
Sigma[668]=1176=2*588=2*Sigma[332]=Sigma[Phi[668]]. Thus 666 is an
element of the sequence.
