a(n) = the minimum value from among (phi(n+1),phi(n+2),phi(n+3),...,phi(2n)), where phi(m) (A000010) is the number of positive integers which are coprime to m and are <= m. |

COMMENT

Conjecture: After omitting multiple occurrences we get A036912. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)Eunet.yu), Oct 31 2007. This conjecture has been established by Max Alekseyev - see link below.
The Alekseyev link establishes the following explicit relationship between A131883, A036912, and A057635. Namely, for t belonging to A036912, we have t=A131883(A057635(t)-1). In other words, A036912(n) = A131883(A057635(A036912(n))-1) for all n.

EXAMPLE
|
For n = 6 we have phi(7)=6, phi(8)=4, phi(9)=6, phi(10)=4, phi(11)=10, phi(12)=4. The least of these values is 4. So a(6) = 4.
