COMMENT

If 2^p-1 is a Mersenne prime then m = 21*2^(p-1) is in the sequence. Because sigma(sigma(m)) = sigma(21*2^(p-1)) = sigma(32*(2^p-1)) = 63*2^p = 6*(21*2^(p-1)) = 6*m. So 21*(A000668+1)/2 is a subsequence of this sequence. This is the subsequence 42, 84, 336, 1344, 86016, 1376256, 5505024, 22548578304, 24211351596743786496, ... - Farideh Firoozbakht (mymontain(AT)yahoo.com), Dec 05 2005
