COMMENT

Recurrence relation involves the Moebius function.

Radius of convergence of A(x) is r=0.5802946238073267... Related limits are limit_{n->inf} a(n) r^n = 0.6303632342... and limit_{n->inf} a(n+1)/a(n) = 1.723262561763844...

FORMULA

G.f.: A(x) = x/sum(mu(n)*x^n, n=1..inf), A(0)=1, where mu(n)=Moebius function.

EXAMPLE

a(6) = -mu(2)a(5) -mu(3)a(4) -mu(4)a(3) -mu(5)a(2) -mu(6)a(1) -mu(7)a(0) = 9 +6 +0 +2 -1 +1 = 17.
