Problem Statement

For a finite set AA of positive integers, a partition of AA into two disjoint nonempty subsets A1A_1 and A2A_2 is <spanclass=latexitalic>good</span><span class='latex-italic'>good</span> if the least common multiple of the elements in A1A_1 is equal to the greatest common divisor of the elements in A2A_2. Determine the minimum value of nn such that there exists a set of nn positive integers with exactly 20152015 good partitions.
