%N Larger member of friendly pairs ordered by smallest maximal element.

%C Perfect numbers greater than 6 (A000396) belong to this sequence as they form friendly pairs with smaller perfect, so that the n-th perfect number will appear n-1 times in the sequence. - _Michel Marcus_, Dec 03 2013

%C If we remove duplicates from the sequence we get A095301. - _Jeppe Stig Nielsen_, Jul 08 2015

%C It is possible to derive a friendly pair from 2 existing pairs (a_n,b_n) and (a_k,b_k); if (a_n,b_k) and (a_k,b_n) (resp. (a_k,b_k) and (a_n,b_n)) are coprime, then (a_n*b_k,a_k*b_n) (resp. (a_k*b_k,a_n*b_n)) is a friendly pair. For instance one can derive (32760,30240) from (819,135) and (224,40). Moreover, since 32760/35 and 30240/35 are both coprime to 35, one can also derive the primitive friendly pair (936,864). - _Michel Marcus_, Oct 09 2015
