%N Numbers equal to the sum of the aliquot parts of the previous k numbers, for some k.

%C So far 2 <= k <= 4 (k = 2 for 7, 35, 51, 237, 263, 387, 899, 8363, 26939, 46595, 80877, ...; k = 3 for 5, 8, 40, 264, 280, 1300, 7300, 8364, 11764, 26740, 59004, 131580, ...; k = 4 for 6). Are there terms with k = 5, 6, 7, ...?

%C a(34) > 10^12. - _Giovanni Resta_, Oct 09 2018

%C If we were looking at numbers equal to the sum of the aliquot parts of the previous k numbers and of the following k, for some k, the first terms would be 2263024 and 128508838576.

%F a(n) = Sum_{i = 1..k} A001065(a(n)-i), for some k.

%e 5 is in the sequence because aliquot parts of 4 are 1, 2, of 3 is 1, of 2 is 1: 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 5.

%e 6 is in the sequence because aliquot parts of 5 is 1, of 4 are 1, 2, of 3 is 1, of 2 is 1: 1 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 6.

%e 7 is in the sequence because aliquot parts of 6 are 1, 2, 3, of 5 is 1: 1 + 2 + 3 + 1 = 7.
