For any natural number k, J(k) is the set of solutions of the equation ф(x)=k. We find that the set of natural numbers is a disjoint union of J(k) and O(J(2a-1)) = a+1 if 1 ≤ a ≤ 32, 32 if a ≥ 33 in absence of sixth Fermat prime. Explicit expressions of J(231) and J(232) are also obtained.
Key words: Euler’s ф -function, carmichael’s conjecture, fermat primes, , , ,
