Comments

Numbers n such that sum of divisors of n (A000203) is odd.

Also the numbers with an odd number of run sums (trapezoidal arrangements, number of ways of being written as the difference of two triangular numbers). - Ron Knott, Jan 27 2003

Pell(n)*Sum_{k|n} 1/Pell(k) is odd, where Pell(n) is A000129(n). - Paul Barry, Oct 12 2005

Number of odd divisors of n (A001227) is odd. - Vladeta Jovovic, Aug 28 2007

A071324(a(n)) is odd. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jul 03 2008

Sigma(a(n)) = A000203(a(n)) = A152677(n). - Jaroslav Krizek, Oct 06 2009

Numbers n such that sum of odd divisors of n (A000593) is odd. - Omar E. Pol, Jul 05 2016

A187793(a(n)) is odd. - Timothy L. Tiffin, Jul 18 2016

If k is odd (k = 2m+1 for m >= 0), then 2^k = 2^(2m+1) = 2*(2^m)^2. If k is even (k = 2m for m >= 0), then 2^k = 2^(2m) = (2^m)^2. So, the powers of 2 sequence (A000079) is a subsequence of this one. - Timothy L. Tiffin, Jul 18 2016

Numbers n such that A175317(n) = Sum_{d|n} pod(d) is odd, where pod(m) = the product of divisors of m (A007955). - Jaroslav Krizek, Dec 28 2016

Positions of zeros in A292377 and A292383, positions of ones in A286357 and A292583. (See A292583 for why.) - Antti Karttunen, Sep 25 2017

Numbers of the form A000079(i)*A016754(j), i,j>=0. - R. J. Mathar, May 30 2020

Equivalently, numbers whose odd part is square. Cf. A042968. - Peter Munn, Jul 14 2020

These are the Heinz numbers of the partitions counted by A119620. - Gus Wiseman, Oct 29 2021

Numbers m whose abundance, A033880(m), is odd. - Peter Munn, May 23 2022

Numbers with an odd number of middle divisors (cf. A067742). - Omar E. Pol, Aug 02 2022
