COMMENT

The sequence A027306 records the number of points of period n under a map. The number of orbits of length n for this map gives the sequence above.

FORMULA

If a(n) is the (n+1)-th term of A027306, then the n-th term is u(n) = (1/n)* Sum_{ d divides n }\mu(d)a(n/d)

EXAMPLE

u(7) = 9 since the map whose periodic points are counted by A027306 has 1 fixed point and 64 points of period 7, hence 9 orbits of length 7.
