Example of Divisor Sum of Integer

$\map {\sigma_1} {4536} = 14 \, 520$

where $\sigma_1$ denotes the divisor sum function.


Proof

From Divisor Sum of Integer

$\ds \map {\sigma_1} n = \prod_{1 \mathop \le i \mathop \le r} \frac {p_i^{k_i + 1} - 1} {p_i - 1}$

where $n = \ds \prod_{1 \mathop \le i \mathop \le r} p_i^{k_i}$ denotes the prime decomposition of $n$.


We have that:

$4536 = 2^3 \times 3^4 \times 7$


Hence:

\(\ds \map {\sigma_1} {4536}\) \(=\) \(\ds \frac {2^4 - 1} {2 - 1} \times \frac {3^5 - 1} {3 - 1} \times \paren {7 + 1}\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds \frac {15} 1 \times \frac {243} 2 \times 8\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 15 \times 121 \times 8\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds \paren {3 \times 5} \times 11^2 \times 2^3\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 14 \, 520\)
