Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
Different from A151821, but often confused with it.
Nicolas used the notation a(n) for the number of Abelian groups of order n (A000688) and named these numbers a-highly composite numbers (a-hautement composés). - Amiram Eldar, Aug 20 2019

FORMULA
Warning: the g.f. is not x*(1+2*x)/(1-2*x), as claimed earlier.
Warning: this is not the binomial transform of A010684, as claimed earlier.
Warning: this is not the row sums of either A131127 or A134058, as claimed earlier.
MATHEMATICA
aa = {}; max = 0; Do[If[FiniteAbelianGroupCount[n] > max, max = FiniteAbelianGroupCount[n]; AppendTo[aa, n]], {n, 2^22}]; aa (* Artur Jasinski, Oct 06 2011 *)
CROSSREFS
Warning: this is different from A151821.
