%N Smallest odd number k greater than 1 such that sigma_n(k)/k is an integer.

%C a(1) corresponds to odd multiperfect numbers greater than 1, if they exist.

%C Does every integer greater than 1 have a solution?

%C 65 is a solution for every positive n congruent to 2 mod 4.

%e 65 is the smallest odd number k > 1 such that sigma_2(k)/k is an integer, hence a(2)=65.
