COMMENTS

What is the definition of this sequence? [Charles R Greathouse IV, Jan 12 2012]

Note that A002182 is the sequence of highly composite numbers. - T. D. Noe, Jan 12 2012

The numbers contain the starred entries on pp 187 of Nicolas. It is a subsequence of A002809 by selecting only elements of a set/property "G" (page 150). G contains all N such that a real, strictly positive rho exists such that for all strictly positive integers A we have l(A)-l(N) >= rho*log(A/N). The function l()=A008475() is defined on page 139. - R. J. Mathar, Mar 23 2012
