A067931 Numbers k that divide the alternating sum sigma(1) - sigma(2) + sigma(3) - sigma(4) + ... + ((-1)^(k+1))*sigma(k). 2

%I #18 Aug 15 2021 21:50:52

%S 1,2,11,19,36,45,152,377,418,3794,4423,14495,31148,42224,49279,120447,

%U 7863041200

%N Numbers k that divide the alternating sum sigma(1) - sigma(2) + sigma(3) - sigma(4) + ... + ((-1)^(k+1))*sigma(k).

%C No further term below 10^7.

%C a(25) > 5*10^10. - _Donovan Johnson_, Jul 26 2011

%e sigma(1) - sigma(2) = -2, which is divisible by 2, so 2 is a term of the sequence.

%t s = 0; Do[s = s + (-1)^(i + 1) * DivisorSigma[1, i]; If[Mod[s, i] == 0, Print[i]], {i, 1, 10^5}]

%o (PARI) {a067931(m)=local(s,n); s=0; for(n=1,m, if(n%2==0,s=s-sigma(n),s=s+sigma(n)); if(s%n==0,print1(n,",")))}

%Y Cf. A000203, A068762.

%K nonn,more
