%N Sum of modified exponential divisors: if n = product p_i^r_i then me-sigma(x) = product (sum p_i^s_i such that s_i+1 divides r_i+1).

%C The modified exponential divisors of a number n = product p_i^r_i are all numbers of the form product p_i^s_i such that s_i+1 divides r_i+1 for each i.

%C Number of modified exponential divisors coincides with number of exponential divisors A049419.

%C The concept of modified exponential divisors simplifies combinatorial problems on the sum of exponential divisors A051377 such as a search of e-perfect numbers. Each primitive e-perfect number A054980 corresponds to a unique me-perfect number of smaller magnitude.
