COMMENT

a(n)=1 iff n=1, a(p^k)=2^k, a(p*q)=10; where p & q are unique primes. a(n) can not equal an odd number >1. - Robert G. Wilson v.

If m has more divisors than n, then a(m) > a(n). - Matthew Vandermast (ghodges14(AT)comcast.net), Aug 22 2004

If n is of the form p^r*q^s where p & q are distinct primes and r & s are nonnegaive integers then a(n)=2^(rs)*(2^(r+s+1) -2^r-2^s+1); for example f(1400846643)=f(3^5*7^8)=2^(5*8)*(2^ (5+8+1)-2^5-2^8+1)=17698838672310272. Also if n=p_1^r_1*p_2^r_2*...*p_k^r_k where p_1,p_2,...,p_k are distict primes and r_1,r_2,...,r_k are natural numbers then 2^(r_1*r_2*...*r_k)||a(n). - Farideh Firoozbakht (f.firoozbakht(AT)math.ui.ac.ir), Aug 06 2005

FORMULA

2^d(n) - 1 = sum(a(m), m divides n), where d(n)=A000005(n) is the number of divisors of n, so a(n) = sum(mu(n/m)*(2^d(m)-1), m divides n).

EXAMPLE

a(6) = 10. The sets with LCM 6 are {6}, {1,6}, {2,3}, {2,6}, {3,6}, {1,2,3}, {1,2,6}, {1,3,6}, {2,3,6}, {1,2,3,6}.

MATHEMATICA

f[n_] := Block[{d = Divisors[n]}, Plus @@ (MoebiusMu[n/d](2^DivisorSigma[0, d] - 1))]; Table[ f[n], {n, 75}] (from Robert G. Wilson v)

PROGRAM

(PARI) a(n) = local(f, l, s, t, q); f = factor(n); l = matsize(f)[1]; s = 0; forvec(v = vector(l, i, [0, 1]), q = sum(i = 1, l, v[i]); t = (-1)^(l - q)*2^prod(i = 1, l, f[i, 2] + v[i]); s += t); s; - Definition corrected by David Wasserman (dwasserm(AT)earthlink.net), Dec 26 2007
