a prime number has only 1 and itself as divisors; that is, d(n) = 2; a composite number has more than just 1 and itself as divisors; that is, d(n) > 2; a highly composite number has a number of positive divisors that is greater than any lesser number; that is, d(n) > d(m) for every positive integer m < n.
A highly composite number is a positive integer that has more divisors than all smaller positive integers. If d(n) denotes the number of divisors of a positive integer n, then a positive integer N is highly composite if d(N) > d(n) for all n < N. For example, 6 is highly composite because d(6)=4 and d(n)=1,2,2,3,2 for n=1,2,3,4,5 respectively.
The notations d(n), ν(n) and τ(n) (for the German Teiler = divisors) are also used to denote σ 0 (n), or the number-of-divisors function [1] [2] (OEIS: A000005). When z is 1, the function is called the sigma function or sum-of-divisors function , [ 1 ] [ 3 ] and the subscript is often omitted, so σ ( n ) is the same as σ 1 ( n ) ( OEIS ...
The divisors of 10 illustrated with Cuisenaire rods: 1, 2, 5, and 10 In mathematics , a divisor of an integer n , {\displaystyle n,} also called a factor of n , {\displaystyle n,} is an integer m {\displaystyle m} that may be multiplied by some integer to produce n . {\displaystyle n.} [ 1 ] In this case, one also says that n {\displaystyle n ...
In mathematics, Hooley's delta function (()), also called Erdős--Hooley delta-function, defines the maximum number of divisors of in [,] for all , where is the Euler's number. The first few terms of this sequence are
[9] [10] [11] This convention is followed by many computer algebra systems. [12] Nonetheless, some authors leave gcd(0, 0) undefined. [13] The GCD of a and b is their greatest positive common divisor in the preorder relation of divisibility. This means that the common divisors of a and b are exactly the divisors of their GCD
An economical number has been defined as a frugal number, but also as a number that is either frugal or equidigital. gcd( m , n ) ( greatest common divisor of m and n ) is the product of all prime factors which are both in m and n (with the smallest multiplicity for m and n ).
65536 is the natural number following 65535 and preceding 65537.. 65536 is a power of two: (2 to the 16th power).. 65536 is the smallest number with exactly 17 divisors (but there are smaller numbers with more than 17 divisors; e.g., 180 has 18 divisors) (sequence A005179 in the OEIS).
