Table of n, a(n) for n=1..59.

EXAMPLE

a(1) to a(4) are sigma(n) as these increase: 1 3 4 7. sigma(5)=6 and as this decreases, we examine sigma(5)+sigma(4)=7+6=13.

PROG

(PARI) lista(nn) = my(v=vector(nn)); v[1]=sigma(1); for (i=2, nn, k=0; while (sum(j=i-k, i, sigma(j))<v[i-1], k++); v[i]=sum(j=i-k, i, sigma(j))); v; \\ edited by Michel Marcus, Dec 28 2022
