This implies the non-existence of odd perfect numbers. This is equivalent to the same question for A000593, which can be expressed as the sum of the divisors of the odd part of n. %C A161942 Up to 20000000, there are only two odd numbers with a(n) and a(a(n)) both >= n: 81 and 18966025. %F A161942 Multiplicative with a(p^e) = oddpart((p^{e+1}-1)/(p-1)), where oddpart(n) = A000265(n) is the largest odd divisor of n. %o A161942 (PARI) oddpart(n)=n/2^valuation(n,2) %o A161942 a(n)=oddpart(sigma(n)) %Y A161942 Cf.
