L4DEL explanations are a separate layer. They do not change the Lean source. Intuition is explanatory prose; numbered items are a reading path; sources link the wording back to evidence.

    Source documentation

    Let $σ_1(n) = σ(n)$, the sum of divisors function, and $σ_k(n) = σ(σ_{k-1}(n))$.

    Is it true that $\lim_{k → ∞} σ_k(n)^{\frac 1 k} = ∞$?

    This is problem (iii) from Erdos, Granville, Pomerance, Spiro "On the normal behavior of the iterates of some arithmetical functions" (page 169 of the book "Analytic Number Theory", 1990).
