COMMENTS
Tested for each k and j < 200. Otherwise the proof for all j seems laborious, since the number of divisors of terms of sequence rapidly increases: {1, 4, 16, 24, 96, 96, 2304, ...}.
Tested for each k and j <= 1000. - Thomas Baruchel, Oct 10 2003
The given terms have been tested for all j. - Don Reble, Nov 03 2003
This is a proper subset of the multiply perfect numbers A007691. E.g., 8128 from A007691 is not here because its remainder at Sigma[odd,8128]/8128 division is 0 or 896 depending on odd exponent.
FORMULA
DivisorSigma(2*j-1, k)/k is an integer for all j = 1, 2, 3, ..., 200, ...

The following numbers belong to the sequence, but there may be missing terms in between: 796928461056000 (also belongs to A046060); 212517062615531520 (also belongs to A046060); 680489641226538823680000 (also belongs to A046061); 13297004660164711617331200000 (also belongs to A046061). - Thomas Baruchel, Oct 10 2003
Extended to 13 confirmed terms by Don Reble, Nov 04 2003. There is a question whether there are other members below a(13). However, there are none in Achim's list of multiperfect numbers (see A007691); Richard C. Schroeppel has suggested that that list is complete to 10^70 - if so, a(1..12) are correct; as for a(13), Rich says there's only "an epsilon chance that some undiscovered MPFN lies in the gap." So it is very likely to be correct. - Don Reble
