%e A088012 1155 is in the sequence because sigma(1155) = 2304, giving 2*1155 - 2304 = 6, while natural log of 1155 is about 7.05.
%e A088012 From _M. F. Hasler_, Jul 18 2016: (Start)
%e A088012 We have the following factorizations:
%e A088012 1155 = 3 * 5 * 7 * 11,
%e A088012 8925 = 3 * 5^2 * 7 * 17,
%e A088012 32445 = 3^2 * 5 * 7 * 103,
%e A088012 442365 = 3 * 5 * 7 * 11 * 383,
%e A088012 159030135 = 3^5 * 5 * 11 * 73 * 163,

%e A088012 2586415095 = 3^2 * 5 * 11 * 31 * 41 * 4111.
%e A088012 The sequence appears to be a subsequence of A171929. (End)
