    <abstract language="eng">Similar to Fibonacci sequence and Lucas sequences that are recursively defined we define an integer sequence using the Euler totient function ? and study some of its properties. We also verify that the sequence we have defined has some properties similar to Fibonacci sequence, but even then it is not a Lucas sequence.</abstract>
