Abstract

In this paper, we look at various arithmetic properties of the set of those positive integers whose sum of digits in a fixed base is a fixed positive integers . For example, we prove that such integers can have many prime factors, that they are not very smooth, and that most such integers have a large prime factor dividing the value of their Euler function.
