Nontotient
In number theory, a nontotient is a positive integer n which is not a totient number: it is not in the range of Euler's totient function φ, that is, the equation φ = n has no solution x. In other words, n is a nontotient if there is no integer x that has exactly n coprimes below it. All odd numbers are nontotients, except 1, since it has the solutions x = 1 and x = 2. The first few even nontotients are
Least k such that the totient of k is n are
Greatest k such that the totient of k is n are
Number of ks such that φ = n are
According to Carmichael's conjecture there are no 1's in this sequence.
An even nontotient may be one more than a prime number, but never one less, since all numbers below a prime number are, by definition, coprime to it. To put it algebraically, for p prime: φ = p − 1. Also, a pronic number n is certainly not a nontotient if n is prime since φ = p.
If a natural number n is a totient, it can be shown that n*2k is a totient for all natural number k.
There are infinitely many even nontotient numbers: indeed, there are infinitely many distinct primes p such that all numbers of the form 2ap are nontotient, and every odd number has an even multiple which is a nontotient.
