Colossally abundant numbers: n for which there is a positive exponent epsilon such that sigma(n)/n^{1 + epsilon} >= sigma(k)/k^{1 + epsilon} for all k > 1, so that n attains the maximum value of sigma(n)/n^{1 + epsilon}. |

COMMENT
|
All superabundant, colossally abundant, highly composite and superior highly composite numbers are Niven/Harshad numbers. - Rob Hoogers (chimera(AT)chimera.fol.nl), Jun 26 2004
The previous comment is erroneous. The first superabundant number that is not a Harshad number is A004394(105) = 149602080797769600. The first highly composite number that is not a Harshad number is A002182(61) = 245044800. For all exceptions I found, the sum of digits is a power of 3. Although the first 60000 terms of the colossally abundant numbers and the superior highly composite numbers are Harshad numbers, I am not aware of a proof that all terms are Harshad numbers. There may be large counterexamples. [From T. D. Noe (noe(AT)sspectra.com), Oct 27 2009]
