EXAMPLE

For prime(5) = 11, 11-1=3+7 with 3*7 = 21, so a(115) <= 21 and a(115) = 21.

For prime(6) = 13, 13-1=5+7 with 5*7 = 35, so a(136) <= 35 but sigma(27) = 40 == 13 (mod 27), hence a(136)=27.

EXAMPLE

For prime(6) = 13, 13-1=5+7 with 5*7 = 35, so a(1113) <= 35 but sigma(27) = 40 == 13 (mod 27), hence a(13)=27.

EXAMPLE

For prime(5) = 11, by Goldbach conjecture 11-1=3+7 with 3*7 = 21, so a(11) <= 21 and a(11) = 21.

For prime(6) = 13, by Goldbach conjecture 13-1=5+7 with 5*7 = 35 , so a(11) <= 35 but sigma(27) = 40 == 13 (mod 27), hence a(13)=27.

Michel Marcus: by Goldbach conjecture 11-1=3+7   ?   rather by the magical power of addition ??

Bernard Schott: Je ne comprends pas, sorry.

Hugo Pfoertner: Long matches with A177900.

COMMENTS

Now, when n = 3, not no k is known such that sigma(k) == 5 (mod k)? (StopEnd)
