Divisor Function

is defined as the sum of the th Powers of the Divisors of . Thefunction gives the total number of Divisors of and is often denoted , ,, or (Hardy and Wright 1979, pp. 354-355). The first few values of are 1, 2, 2, 3, 2, 4,2, 4, 3, 4, 2, 6, ... (Sloane's A000005). The function is equal to the sum of Divisors of and is often denoted . The first few values of are 1, 3, 4, 7, 6, 12, 8, 15, 13, 18, ...(Sloane's A000203). The first few values of are 1, 5, 10, 21, 26, 50, 50, 85, 91, 130, ... (Sloane's A001157). Thefirst few values of are 1, 9, 28, 73, 126, 252, 344, 585, 757, 1134, ... (Sloane's A001158).


The sum of the Divisors of excluding itself (i.e., the Proper Divisors of ) is called the Restricted Divisor Function and is denoted . The first few values are 0, 1,1, 3, 1, 6, 1, 7, 4, 8, 1, 16, ... (Sloane's A001065).


As an illustrative example, consider the number 140, which has Divisors , 2, 4, 5, 7, 10, 14, 20,28, 35, 70, and 140 (for a total of of them). Therefore,
