Sep 30, 2020 at 4:42 comment added mathoverflowUser Thanks, I know those formulas. I was hoping to get also a formula for $a_1$.
Sep 29, 2020 at 16:32 comment added Max Alekseyev @stackExchangeUser: I do not have a formula for $a_1$, but we can prove the following identities: $$a_0 = \frac{A_1}n=\frac{A_0}2,$$ $$a_2 = \frac{A_2-nA_1}2 + na_1.$$
Sep 29, 2020 at 7:12 comment added mathoverflowUser It seems it is not possible to derive a formula for $a_i$ using your linear dependence technique, while for $A_i$ it is possible.

Sep 28, 2020 at 8:24 comment added mathoverflowUser ok, I think also that those identities can be proved.
Sep 28, 2020 at 8:24 comment added Max Alekseyev @stackExchangeUser: Yes, but I'm sure they can be proved.
Sep 28, 2020 at 8:23 comment added mathoverflowUser So there is no proof for these additional identities, just numerical experiments?
Sep 28, 2020 at 8:22 comment added Max Alekseyev @stackExchangeUser: See my comment above.
Sep 28, 2020 at 8:20 comment added mathoverflowUser Could you please provide an indication, how you came up with the last identities?

Sep 28, 2020 at 8:06 comment added mathoverflowUser Yes, That is what I also realised now, that it follows from Ramanujan and van der Pol's identity :)

Sep 28, 2020 at 8:00 comment added Max Alekseyev By finding a linear dependency between vectors of the form $(n^d \sigma_k(n))_{n\geq 1}$ and $(A_2(n))_{n\geq 1}$.
Sep 28, 2020 at 7:54 comment added mathoverflowUser Thanks, How did you come up with this formula? (Seems that we get nothing new from knowing this in case for perfect numbers...)
