COMMENTS

Also the number of factors of 2n^2 which are less than 2n, since the harmonic mean of n and 2n^2/k-n is 2n-k and these are all positive integers iff k<2n is a factor of 2n^2. So a(n)=3 iff n=4 or n is an odd prime.

EXAMPLE

a(6)=7 since the pairwise harmonic means of 6 with 2, 3, 6, 12, 18, 30 and 66 are 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 10 and 11 respectively.

CROSSREFS

The smallest and largest positive integers whose harmonic means with n are positive integers are A053626 and A000384 with harmonic means of A053627 and A004273.
