COMMENTS
The number 88978489594 is the 45th element of A283157. That is, no even number below it has more preimages under the sum-of-proper-divisors function.
There are exactly 95 elements in the sequence.
In 2016, C. Pomerance proved that, for every e>0, the number of preimages is O_e(n^{2/3+e}).
Conjecture: there exists a positive real number k such that the number of preimages of an even number n is O((log n)^k).

EXAMPLE
a(1) = 111223111970, because it is the smallest number whose sum of proper divisors is equal to 88978489594: 1 + 2 + 5 + 10 + 11122311197 + 22244622394 + 55611555985 = 88978489594.
