A066728 a(n) is the number of integers of the form (n+k+n*k)/(n-k) for k = 1,2,...,n-1.

Comments

a(n)=1 iff n is 2 or the lesser of twin primes (for n >= 3, n follows the sequence A001359).

Also the number of factors of n*(n+2) which are less than n. - Antonio G. Astudillo (afg_astudillo(AT)lycos.com), Jul 02 2003

Table of n, a(n) for n=1..90.

Formula

a(n) = ceiling( d(n*(n+2)) / 2 ) - 1, where d(n) = number of divisors of n (A000005). - Antonio G. Astudillo (afg_astudillo(AT)lycos.com), Jul 02 2003

Example

(4 + 1 + 4*1)/(4 - 1), (4 + 2 + 4*2)/(4 - 2), and (4 + 3 + 4*3)/(4 - 1) are integers, hence a(4)=3.

Maple

with(numtheory):A066728 := n->ceil(tau(n*(n+2))/2)-1;
