COMMENTS

Theorem: If the three numbers p=3*(2^(n-1))-1, q=3*(2^n)-1 and r=9*(2^(2n-1))-1 are all prime where n>=2, then p*q*(2^n) and r*(2^n) are amicable numbers. This 9th century theorem is due to Thabit ibn Kurrah (see for example, the History of Mathematics by David M. Burton, 6th ed., p. 510). - Mohammad K. Azarian, May 19 2008
