COMMENT

Apparently, for p > 2 a prime, we have a(p) = 2*p. If n is not a prime, then let q be the smallest prime dividing n. phi(n) then has (q-1) as factor. Therefore (q-1)q is neither coprime to n nor phi(n). Since q is the smallest prime dividing n, we have a(n) < n. - Stefan Steinerberger (stefan.steinerberger(AT)gmail.com), Jun 29 2008
