Example of Use of Divisor Count Function
- $\map {\sigma_0} {111 \, 111} = 32$
where $\sigma_0$ denotes the divisor count function.
Proof
From Divisor Count Function from Prime Decomposition:
- $\ds \map {\sigma_0} n = \prod_{j \mathop = 1}^r \paren {k_j + 1}$
where:
- $r$ denotes the number of distinct prime factors in the prime decomposition of $n$
- $k_j$ denotes the multiplicity of the $j$th prime in the prime decomposition of $n$.
We have that:
- $111 \, 111 = 3 \times 7 \times 11 \times 13 \times 37$
Thus:
\(\ds \map {\sigma_0} {111 \, 111}\) | \(=\) | \(\ds \map {\sigma_0} {3^1 \times 7^1 \times 11^1 \times 13^1 \times 37^1}\) | ||||||||||||
\(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds \paren {1 + 1} \paren {1 + 1} \paren {1 + 1} \paren {1 + 1} \paren {1 + 1}\) | ||||||||||||
\(\ds \) | \(=\) | \(\ds 32\) |
The divisors of $111 \, 111$ can be enumerated as:
- $1, 3, 7, 11, 13, 21, 33, 37, 39, 77, 91, 111, 143, 231,$
