I'm doing some calculations pertaining to this. For all positive integers k define the set S_k := { 1 <= n < 10^k | OddDigits(n) & OddDigits((n^3) mod 10^k) } It looks like (log # S_k)/k --> 1 (where log is the natural log). Notice that 10^k-1 is always in S_k. The sequence for #S_k starts: [5,25,62,151,381,833,2163,5291,13317,33519,85179,213083,539212,1344272,3358571] and the sequence (log # S_k)/k starts: [1.6094379124341003,1.6094379124341003,1.3757114616816972,1.254319959203731,1.1885598750253403, 1.1208389403611405,1.097035917993294,1.0717203178630164,1.0551996326113493,1.0419867721215448, 1.0320463821421144,1.0224530866792414,1.0152203148865746,1.0079545114672392,1.0018017429237103] On Wed, Apr 18, 2012 at 11:09 AM, James Buddenhagen <jbuddenh@gmail.com>wrote:
Suppose the positive integers n and n^3 both have all digits odd. Such numbers include 1, 11, 15, 33, 39, 71, 91, 173, 175, 179, 335, 3337, 5597, 7353. Is this list complete? This sequence is http://oeis.org/A085597 in OEIS. But there is no key word indicating that it is a finite sequence. Is this known to be a finite sequence?
