COMMENTS

The definition is related to that for semiperfect numbers (A005835). Every practical number (A005153) belongs to this sequence but not necessarily vice versa; e.g., 70 is in this sequence but not practical. Every number n in this sequence has sigma(n) >= 2n-1 (A103288) but, despite being abundant, 102 is not in this sequence.

REFERENCES

Such numbers can be used to construct inheritance puzzles of the type described by Premchand Anne (1998). "Egyptian fractions and the inheritance problem". The College Mathematics Journal 29 (4): 296-300.

EXAMPLE

70 is in this sequence because 70-1=69=35+14+10+7+2+1 and all numbers in the sum are divisors of 70.
