On consecutive integers divisible by the number of their divisors

Titu Andreescu, Florian Luca, M. Tip Phaovibul (2016)

Acta Arithmetica

Similarity:

We prove that there are no strings of three consecutive integers each divisible by the number of its divisors, and we give an estimate for the number of positive integers n ≤ x such that each of n and n + 1 is a multiple of the number of its divisors.

On the average of the sum-of-a-divisors function

Shi-Chao Chen, Yong-Gao Chen (2004)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

We prove an Ω result on the average of the sum of the divisors of n which are relatively coprime to any given integer a. This generalizes the earlier result for a prime proved by Adhikari, Coppola and Mukhopadhyay.

On fluctuations in the mean of a sum-of-divisors function, II

Y.-F. S. Pétermann (2007)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

I give explicit values for the constant implied by an Omega-estimate due to Chen and Chen [CC] on the average of the sum of the divisors of n which are relatively coprime to any given integer a.

On the composition of the Euler function and the sum of divisors function

Jean-Marie De Koninck, Florian Luca (2007)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

Let H(n) = σ(ϕ(n))/ϕ(σ(n)), where ϕ(n) is Euler's function and σ(n) stands for the sum of the positive divisors of n. We obtain the maximal and minimal orders of H(n) as well as its average order, and we also prove two density theorems. In particular, we answer a question raised by Golomb.

On near-perfect numbers

Min Tang, Xiaoyan Ma, Min Feng (2016)

Colloquium Mathematicae

Similarity:

For a positive integer n, let σ(n) denote the sum of the positive divisors of n. We call n a near-perfect number if σ(n) = 2n + d where d is a proper divisor of n. We show that the only odd near-perfect number with four distinct prime divisors is 3⁴·7²·11²·19².
