COMMENT

a(n) = twice the number of odd divisors of n. That is, if d is the divisor function and q is the exponent of the largest power of 2 dividing n, then the a(n) equals 2*d(n)/(q+1). - Andy Niedermaier (aniedermaier(AT)hmc.edu), Jul 20 2003

FORMULA

Moebius transform is period 2 sequence [2, 0, ...]. - Michael Somos Sep 20 2005

G.f.: Sum_{k>0} 2x^k/(1-x^(2k)) = Sum_{k>0} 2x^(2k-1)/(1-x^(2k-1)). - Michael Somos Sep 20 2005

EXAMPLE

a(3)=4 because 3 = (-2)+(-1)+0+1+2+3 or 0+1+2 or 1+2 or 3; a(13)=4 because 13 = (-12)+...+13 or (-5)+...+7 or 6+7 or 13.

PROGRAM

(PARI) a(n)=2*sumdiv(n, d, d%2)

CROSSREFS

A054844(n)=2*A001227(n). Cf. A054843.
