Or, numbers n such that the sum of the divisors of n is a power of 2.

Or, numbers n such that the number of divisors of n and the sum of the divisors of n are both powers of 2.

n is a product of distinct Mersenne primes iff sigma(n) is a power of 2: see exercise in Sivaramakrishnan, or Shallit.

Sequence gives n>1 such that sigma(n)=2*phi(sigma(n)) - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Feb 22 2002

Comment from T. D. Noe, Oct 12 2006: The graph of this sequence shows a discontinuity at the 4097th number because there is a large relative gap between the 12th and 13th Mersenne primes, A000043. Other discontinuities can be predicted using A078426.
