Here sigma(n) = A000203(n), the sum of the divisors of n.
FORMULA
a(n) = A054785(n^4).
Logarithmic derivative of A224902.
Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ c * n^5, where c = (31/115) * zeta(5) * Product_{p prime} (1 + 1/p^2 + 1/p^3 + 1/p^5) = 0.51764417195990550114... . - Amiram Eldar, Mar 17 2024
EXAMPLE
L.g.f.: L(x) = 2*x + 32*x^2/2 + 242*x^3/3 + 512*x^4/4 + 1562*x^5/5 +...
where exponentiation yields the g.f. of A224902:
exp(L(x)) = 1 + 2*x + 18*x^2 + 114*x^3 + 450*x^4 + 2298*x^5 +...
