This number, its double, and numbers formed from either of them by an arbitrary number of repetitions of its sequence of digits are the only ones which generate more than one multiple of themselves in the sequence of their cyclic permutations. See the Kraitchik reference. - _Martin Renner_, Mar 06 2014 %C A101202 Actually, the second claim by Kraitchik is incorrect. Indeed, there are other numbers which generate more than one multiple of themselves, for example 153846 * {3, 4} = {461538, 615384} and 230769 * {3, 4} = {692307, 923076}. - _Giovanni Resta_, Mar 11 2014 %C A101202 The digits of each term can be partitioned into two parts with the right part always consisting of 3 digits and the left part containing all the remaining digits; adding then those two numbers will yield a sum which is multiple of 999: (142+857)/999 = 1 .. (857+142)/999 = 1 (999+999)/999 = 2 (1142+856)/999 = 2 .. (1857+141)/999 = 2 (2142+855)/999 = 3 .. (2857+140)/999 = 3 (2999+997)/999 = 4 .. As a result of above operations the sequence A054896 starting with the term 8 is produced. - _Alexander R. Povolotsky_, Nov 02 2007 %C A101202 1/7 = 0.142857142857142857... - _Harvey P.
