T. D. Noe, Table of n, a(n) for n=1..10000

FORMULA

a(n) = Sum_{d|m} phi(d)/ord(4, d), where m is n with all factors of 2 removed. The formula was developed by extending the ideas in A000374 to composite multipliers. - T. D. Noe (noe(AT)sspectra.com), Apr 21 2003

Mobius transform of A133702: (1, 2, 4, 3, 4, 8, 4, 4, 9, 8,...). = Row sums of triangle A133703. - Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), Sep 21 2007

EXAMPLE

a(9) = 5 because the function 4x mod 9 has the five cycles (0),(3),(6),(1,4,7),(2,8,5).

MATHEMATICA

CountFactors[p_, n_] := Module[{sum=0, m=n, d, f, i, ps, j}, ps=Transpose[FactorInteger[p]][[1]]; Do[While[Mod[m, ps[[j]]]==0, m/=ps[[j]]], {j, Length[ps]}]; d=Divisors[m]; Do[f=d[[i]]; sum+=EulerPhi[f]/MultiplicativeOrder[p, f], {i, Length[d]}]; sum]; Table[CountFactors[4, n], {n, 100}]
