Odd multiperfect numbers

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: A natural number n is called {it multiperfect} or {itk-perfect} for integer kge2 if sigma(n)=kn, where sigma(n) is the sum of the positive divisors of n. In this paper, we establish the structure theorem of odd multiperfect numbers analogous as Euler's theorem on odd perfect numbers. We prove the divisibility of the Euler part of odd multiperfect numbers and characterize the forms of odd perfect numbers n=pialphaM2 such that piequivalpha(extmod8). We also present some examples to show the nonexistence of odd perfect numbers as applications.
