%N a(n) is the smallest positive integer such that (Sum_{t(k)|n, 1 <= k <= a(n)} t(k)) >= n, where t(k) is the k-th positive divisor of n.

%C a(n) = the least number of divisors of n, taken in increasing order as 1, A020639(n), A292269(n), etc. needed so that their sum is >= n. - _Antti Karttunen_, Mar 21 2018

%e The divisors of 12 are 1,2,3,4,6,12. 1+2+3+4 = 10, which is smaller than 12; but 1+2+3+4+6 = 16, which is >= 12. 6 is the 5th divisor of 12, so a(12) = 5.
