Example of Divisor Sum of Integer

$\map {\sigma_1} {207} = 312$

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:

$207 = 3^2 \times 23$


Hence:

\(\ds \map {\sigma_1} {207}\) \(=\) \(\ds \frac {3^3 - 1} {3 - 1} \times \frac {23^2 - 1} {23 - 1}\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds \frac {26} 2 \times \frac {24 \times 22} {22}\) Difference of Two Squares
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 13 \times 24\)
\(\ds \) \(=\) \(\ds 312\)
