COMMENTS

Equivalently, numbers m such that sigma(m)/phi(m), sigma(m)/tau(m) and m*tau(m)/sigma(m) are all integers where phi = A000010, tau = A000005 and sigma = A000203.

Conjecture: 1 would be the only odd term of this sequence, because Oystein Ore conjectured that 1 is the only odd harmonic number (see link), and 1 is an arithmetic and balanced number (A342103).

Proposition: there are no primes in the sequence. Proof: the only prime that is both arithmetic and balanced is 3 (A342103), but 3 is not an harmonic number.

As Hans-Joachim Kanold (1957) proved that the asymptotic density of the harmonic numbers is 0 (see link), the asymptotic density of this sequence is also 0.

a(9) > 6.5*10^14 (verified using list of balanced numbers from Jud McCranie). All the numbers in this range that are both balanced and harmonic numbers are also arithmetic numbers. - Amiram Eldar, Mar 09 2021

EXAMPLE

For 6: tau(6) = 4, phi(6) = 2, sigma(6) = 12, 6*tau(6)/sigma(6) = 6*4/12 = 2, sigma(6)/tau(6) = 3 and sigma(6)/phi(6) = 2, hence 6 is a term.

MAPLE
