GA1 numbers: composite m with G(m) >= G(m/p) for all prime factors p of m, where G(k) = sigma(k)/(k*log(log(k))) and sigma(k) = sum of divisors of k.

COMMENTS
The members with exactly two prime divisors counted with multiplicity are 4 and 2*p, for primes p > 5. (See Section 5 of "Robin's theorem, primes, and a new elementary reformulation of the Riemann Hypothesis".)
The smallest member with more than two prime factors is 183783600. Such GA1 numbers are called "proper" - see A201557 and "Table of proper GA1 numbers up to 10^60".
The smallest odd member is 1058462574572984015114271643676625.
See "On SA, CA, and GA numbers".

EXAMPLE
4 is a member because G(4) > 0 > G(2) = G(4/2).
