COMMENTS
Assuming the Goldbach conjecture, it is easy to show that all primes, except 2 and 5, are the sum of the proper divisors of some number. - T. D. Noe, Nov 29 2006
LINKS
Paul Pollack, Some arithmetic properties of the sum of proper divisors and the sum of prime divisors, Illinois J. Math. 58:1 (2014), pp. 125-147.
FORMULA
A001065(a(n)) is in A000040.
Pollack proves that a(n) >> n log n. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Jun 28 2021
EXAMPLE
The aliquot divisors of 27 are 1, 3, and 9, whose sum is 13, a prime, so 27 is a term.
