sigma(n)/n is in A054030.
Also numbers such that the sum of the reciprocals of the divisors is an integer. - Harvey P. Dale, Jul 24 2001
Luca's solution of problem 11090, which proves that for k>1 there are an infinite number of n such that n divides sigma_k(n), does not apply to this sequence. However, it is conjectured that this sequence is also infinite. - T. D. Noe, Nov 04 2007
Numbers k such that sigma(k) is divisible by all divisors of k, subsequence of A166070. - Jaroslav Krizek, Oct 06 2009
A017666(a(n)) = 1. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Apr 06 2012
Bach, Miller, & Shallit show that this sequence can be recognized in polynomial time with arbitrarily small error by a probabilistic Turing machine; that is, this sequence is in BPP. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jun 21 2013
Conjecture: If n is such that 2^n-1 is in A066175 then a(n) is a triangular number. - Ivan N. Ianakiev, Aug 26 2013
Conjecture: Every multiply-perfect number is practical (A005153). I've verified this conjecture for the first 5261 terms with abundancy > 2 using Achim Flammenkamp's data. The even perfect numbers are easily shown to be practical, but every practical number > 1 is even, so a weak form says every even multiply-perfect number is practical. - Jaycob Coleman, Oct 15 2013
Numbers such that A054024(n) = 0. - Michel Marcus, Nov 16 2013
Numbers n such that k(n) = A229110(n) = antisigma(n) mod n = A024816(n) mod n = A000217(n) mod n = (n(n+1)/2) mod n = A142150(n). k(n) = n/2 for even n; k(n) = 0 for odd n (for number 1 and eventually odd multiply-perfect numbers n > 1). - Jaroslav Krizek, May 28 2014
The only terms m > 1 of this sequence that are not in A145551 are m for which sigma(m)/m is not a divisor of m. Conjecture: after 1, A323653 lists all such m (and no other numbers). - Antti Karttunen, Mar 19 2021

			120 is OK because divisors of 120 are {1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,12,15,20,24,30,40,60,120}, the sum of which is 360=120*3.

These six terms are believed to comprise all 3-perfect numbers. - cf. the MathWorld link. - Daniel Forgues, May 11 2010
If there exists an odd perfect number m (a famous open problem) then 2m would be 3-perfect, since sigma(2m) = sigma(2)*sigma(m) = 3*2m. - Jens Kruse Andersen, Jul 30 2014
According to the previous comment from Jens Kruse Andersen, proving that this sequence is complete would imply that there are no odd perfect numbers. - Farideh Firoozbakht, Sep 09 2014
If 2 were prepended to this sequence, then it would be the sequence of integers k such that numerator(sigma(k)/k) = A017665(k) = 3. - Michel Marcus, Nov 22 2015
From  Antti Karttunen, Mar 20 2021, Sep 18 2021, (Start):
Obviously, any odd triperfect numbers k, if they exist, have to be squares for the condition sigma(k) = 3*k to hold, as sigma(k) is odd only for k square or twice a square. The square root would then need to be a term of A097023, because in that case sigma(2*k) = 9*k. (See illustration in A347391).
Conversely to Jens Kruse Andersen's comment above, any 3-perfect number of the form 4k+2 would be twice an odd perfect number. See comment in A347870.
(End)

			120 = 2^3*3*5;  sigma(120) = (2^4-1)/1*(3^2-1)/2*(5^2-1)/4 = (15)*(4)*(6) = (3*5)*(2^2)*(2*3) = 2^3*3^2*5 = (3) * (2^3*3*5) = 3 * 120. - _Daniel Forgues_, May 09 2010
