The 229026 Zumkeller numbers less than 10^6 have a maximum difference of 12. This leads to the conjecture that any 12 consecutive numbers include at least one Zumkeller number. There are 1989 odd Zumkeller numbers less than 10^6; they are exactly the odd abundant numbers that have even abundance, A174865. - T. D. Noe, Mar 31 2010
For k >= 0, numbers of the form 18k + 6 and 18k + 12 are terms (see Remark 2.3. in Somu et al., 2023). Corollary: The maximum difference between any two consecutive terms is at most 12. - Ivan N. Ianakiev, Jan 02 2024
All 205283 odd abundant numbers less than 10^8 that have even abundance (see A174865) are Zumkeller numbers. - T. D. Noe, Nov 14 2010
Except for 1 and 2, all primorials (A002110) are Zumkeller numbers (follows from Fact 6 in the Rao/Peng paper). - Ivan N. Ianakiev, Mar 23 2016
Supersequence of A111592 (follows from Fact 3 in the Rao/Peng paper). - Ivan N. Ianakiev, Mar 20 2017
Conjecture: Any 4 consecutive terms include at least one number k such that sigma(k)/2 is also a Zumkeller number (verified for the first 10^5 Zumkeller numbers). - Ivan N. Ianakiev, Apr 03 2017
LeVan studied these numbers using the equivalent definition of numbers n such that n = Sum_{d|n, dA180332) "minimal integer-perfect numbers". - Amiram Eldar, Dec 20 2018
The numbers 3 * 2^k for k > 0 are all Zumkeller numbers: half of one such partition is {3*2^k, 3*2^(k-2), ...}, replacing 3 with 2 if it appears. With this and the lemma that the product of a Zumkeller number and a number coprime to it is again a Zumkeller number (see A179527), we have that all numbers divisible by 6 but not 9 (or numbers congruent to 6 or 12 modulo 18) are Zumkeller numbers, proving that the difference between consecutive Zumkeller numbers is at most 12. - Charlie Neder, Jan 15 2019
Improvements on the previous comment: 1) For every integer q > 0, every odd integer r > 0 and every integer s > 0 relatively prime to 6, the integer 2^q*3^r*s is a Zumkeller number, and therefore 2) there exist Zumkeller numbers divisible by 9 (such as 54, 90, 108, 126, etc.). - Ivan N. Ianakiev, Jan 16 2020
Conjecture: If d > 1, d|k and tau(d)*sigma(d) = k, then k is a Zumkeller number (cf. A331668). - Ivan N. Ianakiev, Apr 24 2020
This sequence contains A378541, the intersection of the practical numbers (A005153) with numbers with even sum of divisors (A028983). - David A. Corneth, Nov 03 2024
Sequence gives the positions of even terms in A119347, and correspondingly, of odd terms in A308605. - Antti Karttunen, Nov 29 2024
If s = sigma(m) is odd and p > s then m*p is not in the sequence. - David A. Corneth, Dec 07 2024

Examples

			Given n = 48, we can partition the divisors thus: 1 + 3 + 4 + 6 + 8 + 16 + 24 = 2 + 12 + 48, therefore 48 is a term (A083206(48) = 5).
From _David A. Corneth_, Dec 04 2024: (Start)
30 is in the sequence. sigma(30) = 72. So we look for distinct divisors of 30 that sum to 72/2 = 36. That set or its complement contains 30. The other divisors in that set containing 30 sum to 36 - 30 = 6. So we look for some distinct proper divisors of 30 that sum to 6. That is from the divisors of {1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15}. It turns out that both 1+2+3 and 6 satisfy this condition. So 36 is in the sequence.
25 is not in the sequence as sigma(25) = 31 which is odd so the sum of two equal integers cannot be the sum of divisors of 25.
33 is not in the sequence as sigma(33) = 48 < 2*33. So is impossible to have a partition of the set of divisors into two disjoint set the sum of each of them sums to 48/2 = 24 as one of them contains 33 > 24 and any other divisors are nonnegative. (End)
