Multiplicative structures of values of the sum-of-divisors function
  We study equations of the form $\sigma(p^{q-1})=Az$, where $p$ is a prime, $q$ is a fixed odd prime, $A$ is a fixed integer and $z$ is an integer composed of primes in a fixed finite set. We shall improve upper bounds for the size and the number of solutions of such equations.
