Abstract

We consider the function G(n)=σ(n)nloglognG(n)=\frac{\sigma(n)}{n\log\log n} (where σ(n)=dnd\sigma(n)=\sum_{d|n}d) and set an imposed condition on its argument nn, the fulfillment of which is sufficient for the existence of a prime pp, at which G(np)>G(n)G(np)>G(n). This inequality is of interest in connection with the Robin's inequality. The paper also presents the results of numerical experiment conducted with superabundant numbers.
