(Tau) divisibility of n's 1-area. This is the first step to examine the divisibility of n's k-area. n's k-area is the set of m for which |n-m| is less than or equal to k (n, k, m are natural numbers). 1's 1-area is {1,2}, 5's 1-area {4,5,6}, 3's 2-area {1,2,3,4,5}. We could call this natural area, and still talk about nonnegative or integer area etc.
EXAMPLE
a(10) = 9 as 9 has 3 divisors, 10 has 4 divisors and 11 has 2 divisors. - David A. Corneth, Mar 26 2019
