FORMULA

a(n+1) = 2*a(n) + tau(a(n)) (cf. A000005). - Hans Havermann and Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Jun 25 2008. Using a(n+1) = a(n) + tau(a(n)) would give A064491.

EXAMPLE

The smallest number not dividing 1 is 2, so a(2) = 1+2 = 3.

The numbers not dividing 3 are 2, 4, 5, 6, ..., so a(3) = 3+5 = 8.

The numbers not dividing 8 are 3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 11, 12, ..., so a(4) = 8+12 = 20.

CROSSREFS

Cf. A000005, A064491, A140482.
