Comments

a(n) <= n, with equality if and only if n is in A002093.

Empirically it appears that lim inf_(n -> infinity) a(n)/n = 2/3, with minimum value a(29)/29 = 19/29.

Example

A000203(7) = 8 >= A000203(k) for k = 1,2,3,4,5,7, so a(7) = 6.

Maple

N:= 1000:
B:= map(numtheory:-sigma, [$1..N]):
M:= max(B):
X:= Vector(M):
for n from 1 to N do
  b:= B[n];
  X[b..-1]:= X[b..-1] + <(1$(M-b+1))>;
  A[n]:= X[b];
od:
seq(A[n], n=1..N);
