%N a(n) is the smallest number m with n divisors d such that sigma(d)/tau(d) is an integer for all divisors d.

%C Sequences of numbers m with n such divisors for 1 < n < 6:

%C n = 2: 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, ... (A065091 - odd primes).

%C n = 3: 49, 169, 361, 961, 1369, 1849, 3721, 4489, 5329, 6241, 9409, ...

%C a(p) = (k*p# + 1)^(p-1) for some k > 0 and p# is the product of primes <= k. - _David A. Corneth_, May 01 2020 [Proof: a(p) must be of the form q^(p-1), where q is a prime. Thus r | (q^r - 1)/(q - 1) if r <= p is prime. Suppose that q - 1 is not divisible by r, then 0 == q^r - 1 == q - 1 (mod r), a contradiction! Therefore, q - 1 is divisible by any primes r <= p. In conclusion, q = k*p# + 1 for some k > 0. - _Jinyuan Wang_, May 02 2020]

%C a(17) = 4084081^16 and a(19) = 106696591^18 are too large to be included. - _Amiram Eldar_, May 02 2020

%e a(4) = 15 because number 15 with divisors 1, 3, 5 and 15 is the smallest number with 4 such divisors: sigma(1)/tau(1) = 1/1 = 1, sigma(3)/tau(3) = 4/2 = 2, sigma(5)/tau(5) = 6/2 = 3, sigma(15)/tau(15) = 24/4 = 6.
