A137849
Number of integers m from 1 through n inclusive such that d_i(n)<=d_i(m) for 1<=i<=Min(d(n),d(m)) where d_i(n) denotes the i-th smallest divisor of n and d(n) denotes the number of divisors of n (A000005).

COMMENTS
In other words, number of integers m in {1,...,n} such that the i-th divisor of m is >= the i-th divisor of n, for i=1,...,min(A000005(m),A000005(n)).

FORMULA
a(n) = 2 iff n is prime.
EXAMPLE
a(10) = 7 because there are 7 integers, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9 and 10, whose divisors meet the criterion for n = 10 (4 does not meet this criterion in that 4's 3rd smallest divisor is 4 and 10's third smallest divisor is 5; similarly 6 and 8 do not meet the criterion).
MATHEMATICA
f[n_] := Block[{c = 1, d = Divisors@ n, k = DivisorSigma[0, n], m = 1}, While[m != n, If[ Min[ PadRight[ Divisors@ m, k, n] - d] > -1, c++ ]; m++ ]; c]; Array[f, 80] (* Robert G. Wilson v *)
