Consider the sum of the divisors of a number x>1. Take the sum of its digits. Repeat the process deleting the first addendum and adding the previous sum. The sequence lists the numbers that after some iterations reach x.

44 works in both directions: sigma(n) -> n and n -> sigma(n). See A269308.
EXAMPLE
Sigma(17) = 18 : 1 + 8 = 9; 8 + 9 = 17.
Sigma(133) = 160 : 1 + 6 + 0 = 7; 6 + 0 + 7 = 13; 0 + 7 + 13 = 20; 7 + 13 + 20 = 40; 13 + 20 + 40 = 73; 20 + 40 + 73 = 133.
MAPLE
with(numtheory): P:=proc(q, h) local a, b, k, n, t, v; v:=array(1..h);
for n from 2 to q do a:=sigma(n); b:=ilog10(a)+1; if b>1 then
for k from 1 to b do v[b-k+1]:=(a mod 10); a:=trunc(a/10); od; t:=b+1; v[t]:=add(v[k], k=1..b);
while v[t]<n do t:=t+1; v[t]:=add(v[k], k=t-b..t-1); od;
if v[t]=n then print(n); fi; fi; od; end: P(10^6, 1000);
