EXAMPLE

sigma(m)=1 has only one solution: m=1.

sigma(m)=12 has two solutions, m=6 and m=11; 12 is the smallest number with more than one such solutions.

sigma(m)=24 has three solutions, m=14,m=15 and m=23; 24 is the smallest number with more than two such solutions.

sigma(m)=72 has five solutions, m=30, m=46, m=51, m=55 and m=71; 72 is the smallest number with more than three such solutions.

MATHEMATICA

t = DivisorSigma[1, Range[10^6]]; t2 = Sort[Tally[t]]; mn = 0; t3 = {}; Do[If[t2[[n]][[2]] > mn, mn = t2[[n]][[2]]; AppendTo[t3, t2[[n]][[1]]]], {n, Length[t2]}]; t3 (* T. D. Noe, Feb 03 2012 *)
