A181595 Abundant numbers n for which the abundance d = sigma(n) - 2*n is a proper divisor, that is, 0 < d < n and d | n. 26

%N Abundant numbers n for which the abundance d = sigma(n) - 2*n is a proper divisor, that is, 0 < d < n and d | n.

%C Named near-perfect numbers by sequence author.

%C Union of this sequence and A005820 is A153501.

%C Every even perfect number n = 2^(p-1)*(2^p-1), p and 2^p-1 prime, of A000396 generates three entries: 2*n, 2^p*n and (2^p-1)*n.

%C Every number M=2^(t-1)*P, where P is a prime of the form 2^t-2^k-1, is an entry for which (2^k)|M and sigma(M)-2^k=2*M (see A181701).

%C Conjecture 1: For every k>=1, there exist infinitely many entries m for which (2^k)|m and sigma(m)-2^k = 2*m.

%C Conjecture 2. All entries are even. [Proved to be false, see below. (Ed.)]

%C Conjecture 3. If the suitable (according to the definition) divisor d of an entry is not a power of 2, then it is not suitable divisor for any other entry.

%C Conjecture 4. If a suitable divisor for an even entry is odd, then it is a Mersenne prime (A000043).

%C If Conjectures 3 and 4 are true, then an entry with odd suitable divisor has the form 2^(p-1)*(2^p-1)^2, where p and 2^p-1 are primes. - _Vladimir Shevelev_, Nov 08 2010 to Dec 16 2010

%C The only odd term in this sequence < 2*10^12 is 173369889. - _Donovan Johnson_, Feb 15 2012

%C 173369889 remains only odd term up to 1.4*10^19. - _Peter J. C. Moses_, Mar 05 2012

%C These numbers are obviously pseudoperfect (A005835) since they are equal to the sum of all the proper divisors except the one that is the same as the abundance. - _Alonso del Arte_, Jul 16 2012

%e The abundance of 12 is A033880(12) = 4, which is a proper divisor of 12, so 12 is in the sequence.
