Abstract

In this paper we present a new computational record: the aliquot sequence starting at 3630 converges to 1 after reaching a hundred decimal digits. Also, we show the current status of all the aliquot sequences starting with a number smaller than 10,000; we have reached at least 95 digits for all of them. in particular, we have reached at least 112 digits for the so-called "Lehmer five sequences," and 101 digits for the "Godwin twelve sequences." Finally, we give a summar showing the number of aliquot sequences of unknown end starting with a number less than or equal 10^6.
