In [3], Niven proved that for any positive integer k, the density of the set of positive integers n for which (n, (φ(n))≤k is zero (where φ is the Euler to tient function). In this paper, we prove a related result—namely if k and j are any positive integers, then the density of the set of positive integers n for which (n,σj(n))≤k is zero (where σj(n) is the sum of the jth powers of the positive divisors of n). We will borrow from Niven’s technique, but we must make some crucial modifications.
