Does the set of integers of the form $n+\phi(n)$ have positive (lower) density?
A similar question can be asked for $n+\sigma(n)$, where $\sigma$ is the sum of divisors function.
This is true, and was proved by Gabdullin, Iudelevich, and Luca
[GIL24]. They also proved this with $\phi$ replaced by the divisor function $\tau$ or the prime-counting function $\omega$.
