COMMENT

Also, number of perfect multi-Skolem type sequences of order n.

Index the Fibonacci numbers so that 3 is the fourth number. If the modulo base is a Fibonacci number (>=3) with an even index, the period is twice the index. If the base is a Fibonacci number (>=5) with an odd index, the period is 4 times the index. - Kerry Mitchell (lkmitch(AT)gmail.com), Dec 11 2005

FORMULA

Let the prime factorization of n be p1^e1...pk^ek. Then a(n) = lcm(a(p1^e1), ..., a(pk^ek)). - T. D. Noe (noe(AT)sspectra.com), May 02 2005

a(n) = n-1 if n is a prime > 5 included in A003147 ( n = 11, 19, 31, 41, 59, 61, 71, 79, 109...) - Benoit Cloitre (benoit7848c(AT)orange.fr), Jun 04 2002

K. S. Brown shows that a(n)/n <= 6 for all n and a(n)=6n if and only if n has the form 2*5^k.

a(n) = A001177(n)*A001176(n) for n >= 1. - Henry Bottomley (se16(AT)btinternet.com), Dec 19 2001
