Hello Seqfans 
  
I would like to tell you about a subset of sequence A096366 that I have been studying. 
  
The first pair of this subset is defined as the first primitive friendly pair 6 28. 
Both members are divisible by 2. 
2*3 2^2*7 
  
The next pair is the smallest primitive friendly pair of numbers 
that are divisible by 3 and coprime to 2. 
3^3*5 3^2*7*13 
  
All pairs are the smallest primitive friendly pair of numbers 
that are divisible by a prime p, and coprime to the primes below p. 

Here is my current list from p=2 to 31. 
2*3 2^2*7 
3^3*5 3^2*7*13 
5*7*13*31 5^2*13^2*19*31^3*37*61 
7*19*23*37*137 7^2*19^2*37^3*73*127*137^2 
11^2*13*17*19*31*83*331 11^6*13^2*17^2*31^2*43*61*103*307*331^2*2617*5233*45319 
13^2*31*61^2*97 13*31^2*61*83*331 
17^3*19*29*43*127 17^4*19^2*37*43^3*127^2*271*5419*11093*44371*88741 
19^2*127 19^4*151*911 
23^2*37*79*137 23*37^3*73*137^2 
29*31*37^2*41*43^2*67^3*79*151*433*449*461^3*547*631^2*106261 29^3*37^3*41^3*43^3*53*67*79^2*151^2*163*211*421*461^4*547^2*613*631*1093*23971

The pair for p=2 are the first two perfect numbers as explained in A096366. 
Pairs for p=13, 19, 23 can also be found at http://wwwhomes.uni-bielefeld.de/achim/mpn.html 
  
These pairs are quite probably the smallest for p=2, 3, 19. 
It can happen that a candidate pair is superseded by a pair where the small number is smaller, with the large number much larger. 
For instance, the pair 5^3*11*13 5^4*11^2*19*71 17875 102018125 
has been replaced by the 14105 5397553488925. 
Is it possible to find pairs for p > 31? 
Is it possible to find smaller pairs? 
  
Is this interesting for OEIS? 
If yes, would it make sense to enter them with 2 entries like A050972 and A050973? 
  
Best regards. 
Michel
