%N Maximum width of any region in the symmetric representation of sigma(n).

%C Since the width of the single region of the symmetric representation of sigma( 2^ceiling((p-1)*(log_2 3) - 1) * 3^(p-1) ), for prime number p, at the diagonal equals p, this sequence contains an increasing subsequence (see A250071).

%C a(n) is also the number of layers of width 1 in the symmetric representation of sigma(n). For more information see A001227. - _Omar E. Pol_, Dec 13 2016

%H N. J. A. Sloane, <a href="/A250068/b250068.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..10000</a>

%F a(n) = max_{k=1..floor((sqrt(8*n+1) - 1)/2)} (Sum_{j=1..k}(-1)^(j+1)*A237048(n, j)), for n >= 1.

%e a(6) = 2 since the sequence of widths at each unit step in the symmetric representation of sigma(6) = 12 is 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1. For visual examples see A237270, A237593 and sequences referenced in these.
