Comments

We define a divisor d|n to be strictly superior if d > n/d. Strictly superior divisors are counted by A056924 and listed by A341673.

This is a subsequence of A007916, i.e., no perfect powers appear here. [For perfect powers n, a supposed strictly superior squarefree divisor d=p*q*r... with distinct primes p,q,r,s... has a complementary divisor n/d=p^i*q^j*r^k*s*... with i,j,k>=1, so the complementary divisor is at least as large as d, a contradiction.] Entries in A007916 but not in here are 48, 54, 72, 96, 108, 160, 162, 192,... - R.

Is this a duplicate of A089105? - R. J. Mathar, Jul 24 2023

Example

60 has three strictly superior squarefree divisors {10,15,30} so 60 is in the sequence.

Maple
