Comments

Also, integers n such that B(n)*n == 7 (mod n), where B(n) is the n-th Bernoulli number, or SUM[prime p, (p-1) divides n] n/p == -7 (mod n). It is easy to see that for n>1, every prime divisor p of n, except p=7, must appear in first power, while p=7 may appear in first or second power. Moreover, the multiset P of prime divisors of all such n satisfies the property: if p is in P, then p-1 is the product of distinct elements of P. This multiset is P = {2, 3, 7, 7, 43}, implying that the sequence is finite and complete. - Max Alekseyev, Aug 25 2013
