Let $A$ be a sequence of positive integers and $P(A)$ be the set of all integers which are the finite sum of distinct terms of $A$. For given positive integers $u\in\{4,7,8\}\cup\{u:u\ge11\}$ and $v\ge 3u+5$ we know that $u+v+1$ is the critical value of $b_3$ such that there exists a sequence $A$ of positive integers for which $P(A)=\mathbb{N}\backslash \{u

Let $H_n$ be the $n$-th harmonic number and let $v_n$ be its denominator. It is well known that $v_n$ is even for every integer $n\ge 2$. In this paper, we study the properties of $v_n$. One of our results is: the set of positive integers $n$ such that $v_n$ is divisible by the least common multiple of $1, 2, \cdots, \lfloor {n^{1/4}}\rfloor $ has density one. In particular, for any positive integer $m$, the set of positive integers $n$ such that $v_n$ is divisible by $m$ has density one., Comment: 6 pages
