COMMENTS
n | sigma(n) gives the multi-perfect numbers A007691, n | sigma(n)+1 if n is a power of 2 (A000079).
This contains A191363 as subsequence, so for any Fermat prime F(k) = 2^2^k+1, the triangular number A000217(2^2^k)=(F(k)-1)*F(k)/2 is in this sequence. See also A055708 which is identical up to the first term. - M. F. Hasler, Oct 02 2014
