(Greetings from The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences!)
A130140 Let f denote the map that replaces k by the concatenation of its proper divisors, written in increasing order, each divisor being written in base 10 with its digits in reverse order. Then a(n) = prime reached when starting at 2n+1 and iterating f. 4

COMMENTS

If 2n+1 is 1 or a prime, set a(n) = 2n+1. If no prime is ever reached, set a(n) = -1.

Table of n, a(n) for n=0..6.

EXAMPLE

n = 7: 2n+1 = 15 = 3*5 -> 35 = 5*7 -> 57 = 3*19 -> 391 = 17*23 -> 7132.

Then 7132 has proper divisors 2, 4, 1783, 3566, so we get 2438716653.

Then 2438716653 has proper divisors 3, 9, 27, 81, 243, 1453, 4359, 6907, 13077, 20721, 39231, 62163, 117693, 186489, 353079, 559467, 1678401, 10035871, 30107613, 90322839, 270968517, 812905551, so we get

397218342354195347096770311270213293361263967119846819703537649551048761178530013167010393822309715869072155509218, which has a lot of divisors. So a(7) is currently unknown.
