  That Wikipedia vortex took me to Ruth-Aaron pairs: sequential numbers whose prime factors each sum to the same value. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruth%E2%80%93Aaron_pair https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruth%E2%80%93Aaron_pair

  Looks like it's 9. Bhautik Joshi, first author on this paper, collaborated with Sébastien Ourselin on e.g. [1], and Sébastien Ourselin has an Erdős number of 5 [2]. So Stewart's Erdős number is at most 7. Her Bacon number is 2. 'We learned that Kristen Stewart has a Bacon number of two because she and Michael Sheen costarred together in "The Twilight Saga," and Sheen and Bacon starred in "Frost/Nixon."'

  Does the paper have to be peer-reviewed? The only arxiv reference on that wikipedia page is the same paper this thread is about.
