| Nov 14, 2013 at 5:55 | comment | added | Jaycob Coleman | @WlodzimierzHolsztynski The people who study these sorts of things would all be called elementary number theorists, but that's only because these things aren't well understood enough to be applied, I think. The practical numbers have been shown to have many significant analogies with primes, but nearly all that's been done with practical numbers is the verification of these analogous properties - or likely analogous, considering some of the analogues are unproven for primes, like the Goldbach and twin prime conjectures. I couldn't assign a specific field to these sequences from what is known. | |

| Nov 13, 2013 at 22:55 | comment | added | Jose Arnaldo Bebita | By the way, @JaycobColeman - $1$ is also the only known odd almost perfect number. | |
