An odd perfect number $N$ is said to be given in Eulerian form if $N = {q^k}{n^2}$ where $q$ is prime with $q \equiv k \equiv 1 \pmod 4$ and $\gcd(q,n) = 1$. Similarly, an even perfect number $M$ is said to be given in Euclidean form if $M…

Erd\H{o}s and Graham define $g(n) = n + \phi(n)$ and the iterated application $g_k(n) = g(g_{k-1}(n))$. They ask for solutions of $g_{k+r}(n) = 2 g_{k}(n)$ and observe $g_{k+2}(10) = 2 g_{k}(10)$ and $g_{k+2}(94) = 2 g_{k}(94)$. We show…
