%N A265714 a(n) = the smallest number k such that floor(Sum_{d|k} 1/sigma(d)) = n.
%C A265714 If a(4) exists, it must be bigger than 5*10^6.
%C A265714 Are there numbers n > 1 such that Sum_{d|n} 1/sigma(d) is an integer?
%C A265714 Conjecture: a(n) is also the smallest number k such that Sum_{d|k} 1/sigma(d) >= n.
%C A265714 Sequence of numbers n such that floor(Sum_{d|n} 1/sigma(d)) = k for k = 1, 2, 3:
%C A265714 k = 1: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, ... (A265711);
%C A265714 k = 2: 60, 72, 84, 90, 120, 144, 168, 180, 210, 216, 240, 252, ... (A265712);
%C A265714 k = 3: 110880, 166320, 221760, 277200, 327600, 332640, 360360, ... (A265713).
%C A265714 From _Robert Israel_, Dec 24 2015: (Start)
%C A265714 Note that g(k) = Sum_{d | k} 1/sigma(d) is multiplicative, with g(p) = 1 + 1/(p+1) for prime p.
%C A265714 Since Product_p (1+1/(p+1)) diverges, there are certainly numbers k with floor(g(k)) = n, including some squarefree numbers.
%C A265714 Conjectured values: a(4) = 4658179125600,
%C A265714   a(5) = 1188178218523336378848918408000,

%C A265714 These do have the correct value of floor(g(k)), but may not be the lowest possible.
