A076135 Numbers n such that O(n) = E(n)-1, where O(n), E(n) denote the number of integers k, 1 <= k <= n, such that Omega(n) is even or odd, respectively and Omega(n) denotes the number of prime factors of n, counting multiplicity. 0

COMMENTS

In 1919, George Polya conjectured that O(n) >= E(n) for n >= 2. However, in 1958, C. B. Haselgrove showed that there are infinitely many positive integers n for which O(n) < E(n). In 1966, R.S. Lehman showed that 906180359 is the smallest positive integer for which O(n) = E(n) - 1. (Tattersall, p. 92)
