630*k + 315 is an abundant number for the first 52 positive values of k.
The number of terms not exceeding 10^k, for k = 1, 2, ..., are 0, 19, 276, 2242, 22249, 235300, 2319944, 22958712, 230566888, 2308563768, 23063629594, ... Apparently the asymptotic density of this sequence is 0.230...
There are 2048662 odd abundant numbers (A005231) below 10^9, of them 1213732 are of the form 630*k + 315. Apparently, the asymptotic density of abundant numbers of this form within the odd abundant numbers is about 0.6.
From Jianing Song, May 30 2022: (Start)
Numbers k > 0 such that (2*k+1)/sigma(2*k+1) <= 105/104.
Contains (p^i-1)/2 for all primes p >= 107 and i >= 1.
Since 315*p is abundant for primes p = 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, ..., 103, the prime factors of 2*k+1 are at least 107 if k is a term of this sequence. Hence we have a(n) = A005097(n+26) = (prime(n+27)-1)/2 for n <= 1354, whereas 2*a(1355)+1 = 11449 = 107^2.
The smallest term k such that 2*k+1 is not a prime power is k = a(4872), with 2*k+1 = 211*223. (End)
