This is the first column of the irregular triangle in A336216.
From the formula of Vladeta Jovovic in A034448 we get for an even number n not divisible by 4 and odd prime p: usigma(2^m * p * n) = (2^(m+1) + 1) * (p + 1) * usigma(n) / 3 so that usigma(2^m * p * n) = (2^m * p * n) * usigma(n) when 3* 2^m * p = (2^(m+1) + 1) * (p + 1), and consequently, p = (2^(m+1) + 1) / (2^m - 1), i.e. p = 5 for m = 1, and p = 3 for m = 2.
Therefore, if all members a_1, a_2, ... , a_k, a_1 of a cycle are even and not divisible by 4 and 5 then 10*a_1, 10*a_2, ... , 10*a_k, 10*a_1 form a cycle, and if all members a_1, a_2, ... , a_k, a_1 of a cycle are even and not divisible by 3 and 4 then 12*a_1, 12*a_2, ... , 12*a_k, 12*a_1 form a cycle.
If all members a_1, a_2, ... , a_k, a_1 of a cycle are odd, divisible by 3, but not divisible by 5 and 9 then 15*a_1, 15*a_2, ... , 15*a_k, 15*a_1 form a cycle. No such cycles exist in the current data up to 27287260.
FORMULA
a(n) = A336216( 1 + Sum_{i=1..n-1} A336218(i) ).
