COMMENT

Often, but not always, a(n)=n+A054024(n). The exceptions to this rule are at n=24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84,90, 96, 108,... - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leideuniv.nl), Mar 14 2007

EXAMPLE

12's divisors are 1,2,3,4,6, and 12. Adding the divisors in order we have:

1 = 1, 1+2 = 3, 1+2+3 = 6, 1+2+3+4 = 10, 1+2+3+4+6 = 16, and 1+2+3+4+6+12 = 28.

Of these sums, 1+2+3+4+6 = 16 is the lowest which is >= 12. So a(12) = 16.

MAPLE
