%N A129667 Dirichlet inverse of the Abelian group count (A000688).
%C A129667 The simple formula which gives the value of this multiplicative function 
               for the power of any prime can be derived from Euler's celebrated 
               "Pentagonal Number Theorem" (applied to the generating function of 
               the partition function A000041 on which A000688 is based).

               Partition Function</a> and Pentagonal Numbers.
%H A129667 G. P. Michon, <a href="http://www.numericana.com/answer/numbers.htm#multiplicative">

%F A129667 Multiplicative function for which a(p^e) either vanishes or is equal 
               to (-1)^n, for any prime p, if e is either n(3n-1)/2 or n(3n+1)/2 
               (these integers are the pentagonal numbers of the first and second 
               kind, A000326 and A005449).
%e A129667 a(8) and a(27) are zero because the sequence vanishes for the cubes of 
               primes. Not so with fifth powers of primes (since 5 is a pentagonal 
               number) so a(32) is nonzero.
