Quasi-Carmichael numbers are squarefree composites n with the property that for every prime factor p of n, p+b divides n+b positively with b being any integer besides 0.
If b is negative, then it is always larger than 0 minus the square root of the corresponding Quasi-Carmichael number. But if b is positive, how large can it be in relation to its corresponding Quasi-Carmichael number? Conjecture: It is always smaller than the square root of the corresponding Quasi-Carmichael number.
Are 1885 and 1886 the only two consecutive integers such that both numbers are Quasi-Carmichael numbers?
The conjecture that b < sqrt(n) is false. Look at n = 87061 = 13*37*181, 87365 = 5*101*173, and 96473 = 13*41*181. Their b values are 299, 331, and 351, while the corresponding sqrt(n) values are 295, 295, and 310, respectively.
For b to result in (n+b)/(p+b) > 0 with n = P_1*p_2*...*p_i and P_1 < p_2 < ... < p_i, -p_1 < b < |(n-p_i^2)/p_i|. (n+b)/(p+b) >= b+1. Solve for b.
Less than 0.5% are even (A262252). Of course they are == 2 (mod 4).
Least k-almost prime quasi-Carmichael number with k>1: 35, 165, 6545, 179998, 7509579, ..., .

EXAMPLE
|
a(1) = 35 because this is the first squarefree composite number n such that at least one integer b except 0 exists such that for every prime factor p of n applies that p+b divides n+b (-3): 35 = 5*7 and 2, 4 both divide 32.
