Remarkably similar to but ultimately different from A018894. - Jorg Brown and N. J. A. Sloane, Mar 06 2007

This sequence represents "where records occur" for a number of sequences in addition to A018892 including the following: A015995, A015996, A015999, A016001, A016002, A016003, A016005, A016006, A016007, A016008, A016009, A048691, A048785, A063647, A117677, A144943. - Ray Chandler, Dec 04 2008

Subsequence of A025487. - Ray Chandler, Sep 05 2008

Also record-setting elements of tau(n^2) (just as A002182 gives the record-setting elements of tau(n)). The point is that A018892 is (tau(n^2) + 1)/2. As tau(n^2) is odd, the record-setting elements of A018892 are also the record setting elements of tau(n^2). - Allen Tracht, Jan 20 2009
