The conjecture on the classification of unitary perfect numbers

A positive integer nn is unitary perfect when its unitary divisor sum satisfies σ(n)=2n\sigma^*(n)=2n, where the unitary divisors are the divisors dd such that gcd(d,n/d)=1\gcd(d,n/d)=1. The known unitary perfect numbers are

6,60,90,87360,146361946186458562560000.6, 60, 90, 87360, 146361946186458562560000.

The classification conjecture. The five integers above are the only unitary perfect numbers. No further unitary perfect number is known; this is the classical Subbarao–Warren problem, and the paper provides bounded-box reductions and computational evidence but does not prove the classification.
