COMMENT

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

Is a(n) asymptotic to c*n^2 with c=1.5.... ? It seems that n^2 < a(n) < 2n^2 for n>100. - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Sep 05 2002

If p>2 and 2^p-1 is prime (Merssene 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. - Farideh Firoozbakht (f.firoozbakht(AT)math.ui.ac.ir), Nov 27 2005
