This is a necessary condition to have sigma(sigma(m))/sigma(m) = sigma(m)/m.

Are there other integers than 1, for which this is satisfied?

If m is an odd number such that sigma(sigma(m^2))/2 is a square, and p is in A000043 such that 2^p-1 does not divide sigma(m^2), then 2^(p-1)*m^2 is in the sequence. Such m include 5, 19, 161, 543, 1031, 1899, 3035, 6673. Thus if A000043 is infinite, so is this sequence. - Robert Israel, Aug 17 2018
