COMMENTS
A065387 when iterated seems to converge [tested for initial values below 1024]. On the other hand iterating A051682 often ends in cycle.
Iteration of phi(A065387())=phi(sigma()+phi()) seems to converge. Tested below n=1024. Critical values however arise. For example: n=534,556,557,580,624,702,710, etc. These initial values generate very large terms and i was unable to decide if they converge.
For n=1..1024 no more but 27 distinct fixed points arised:{1,2,6,10,..,3552,570240}
FORMULA
a(n) = FixedPoint[A077080, n].
EXAMPLE
n=225: results in iteration sequence of 44 terms: {225,522,444,...,471744,653312,570240}, a[25]=570240.
