COMMENTS

The triple 171078830, 171078831, 171078832 was apparently found by Laurent Hodges and Michael Reid in 1995.

The starting term of the smallest consecutive 4-tuple of abundant numbers is at most 141363708067871564084949719820472453374 - Bruno Mishutka (bruno.mishutka(AT)googlemail.com), Nov 01 2007

Paul Erdos showed that there are two absolute constants c1, c2 such that for all large n there are at least c1 log log log n but not more than c2 log log log n consecutive abundant numbers less than n. - Bruno Mishutka (bruno.mishutka(AT)googlemail.com), Nov 01 2007

The term a(0) = 0 is included to avoid the warning messages triggered by sequences with fewer than four terms. - N. J. A. Sloane (njas(AT)research.att.com), Nov 07 2007
