COMMENT

Square root of n-th term of A061283. a(n)=Sqrt[Min{k| A000005(k)=2n-1}]. If n = p(i) = p, a prime, then a(p) = 2^[(p-1)/2] = 2^A005097(i). - Labos E. (labos(AT)ana.sote.hu), May 22 2001

a(n+1)<=2^n.

FORMULA

Least k such that (tau(k^2)+1)/2=n. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)Eunet.yu), Aug 01 2001

EXAMPLE

a(1)=1 and a(2)=2 because 1/2 = 1/3+1/6 = 1/4+1/4.

a(3)=4 because 1/4 = 1/5+1/20 = 1/6+1/12 = 1/8+1/8.

a(4)=8 because 1/8 = 1/9+1/72 = 1/10+1/40 = 1/12+1/24 = 1/16+1/16.

a(5)=6 because 1/6 = 1/7+1/42 = 1/8+1/24 = 1/9+1/18 = 1/10+1/15 = 1/12+1/12.

MATHEMATICA

f[j_, n_] := (Times @@ (j(Last /@ FactorInteger[n]) + 1) + j - 1)/j; t = Table[0, {50}]; Do[a = f[2, n]; If[a < 51 && t[[a]] == 0, t[[a]] = n; Print[{a, n}]], {n, 2^30}] (from Robert G. Wilson v (rgwv(AT)rgwv.com), Aug 03 2005)
