Dyson number


An n-parasitic number (in base 10) is a positive natural number which can be multiplied by n by moving the rightmost digit of its decimal representation to the front. Here n is itself a single-digit positive natural number. In other words, the decimal representation undergoes a right circular shift by one place. For example, 4•128205=512820, so 128205 is 4-parasitic. Most authors do not allow leading zeros to be used, and this article follows that convention. So even though 4•025641=102564, the number 025641 is not 4-parasitic.

An n-parasitic number can be derived by starting with a digit k (which should be equal to n or greater) in the rightmost (units) place, and working up one digit at a time. For example, for n = 4 and k = 7

So 179487 is a 4-parasitic number with units digit 7. Others are 179487179487, 179487179487179487, etc.

Notice that the repeating decimal

Thus

In general, an n-parasitic number can be found as follows. Pick a one digit integer k such that kn, and take the period of the repeating decimal k/(10n−1). This will be where m is the length of the period; i.e. the multiplicative order of 10 modulo (10n − 1).
