%N A011257 Geometric mean of phi(n) and sigma(n) is an integer.
%C A011257 For these terms the arithmetic mean is also an integer. It is conjectured
that sigma(n) for these numbers is never odd. See also A065146, A028982,
A028983. - Labos E. (labos(AT)ana.sote.hu), Oct 18 2001
%C A011257 If p>2 and 2^p-1 is prime (a Mersenne prime) then m=2^(p-2)*(2^p-1) is
in the sequence because phi(m)=2^(p-2)*(2^(p-1)-1); sigma(m)= (2^(p-1)-1)*2^p
hence (phi(m)*sigma(m))^(1/2)=2^(p-1)*(2^(p-1)-1) is an integer.
So for n>1, 2^(A000043(n)-2)*2^(A000043(n)-1) is in the sequence.

that a(n)>n^2. - M. F. Hasler, Feb 07 2009
