a(n) = A131382(n) * n. - Michel Marcus, Dec 10 2012
The subsequence of repdigits is: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 888, 999, 999999999, 999999999999999999999999999, ... and their indices are: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 24, 27, 81, 243, 729, 999, ... - Michel Marcus, Apr 14 2015
a(n) is the smallest harshad number (see A005349) whose sum of digits is n; it is not obvious that a(n) exists for all n, see Mohammed Aassila's reference. - Robert FERREOL, Jun 30 2023
