COMMENT

The multiplicative order of a mod m, GCD(a,m)=1, is the smallest natural number d for which a^d = 1 (mod m). a(n)=number of orders of degree-n monic irreducible polynomials over GF(4).

FORMULA

a(n)=Sum_{ d divides n } mu(n/d)*tau(4^d-1), (mu(n) = Moebius function A008683, tau(n) = number of divisors of n A000005).

EXAMPLE

a(1)=|{1,3}|=2, a(2)=|{5,15}|=2, a(3)=|{7,9,21,63}|=4, a(4)=|{17,51,85,255}|=4,...
