COMMENT

The second term of sequences of this type for n=0,1,2... form the sequence 1,2,1,2,1,...in decimal .1212121212... = 4/33

Multiplicative with a(p^e) = GCD(p^e, 6). David W. Wilson (davidwwilson(AT)comcast.net) Jun 12, 2005.

FORMULA

a(n) = GCD(6, n). David W. Wilson (davidwwilson(AT)comcast.net) Jun 12, 2005.

a(n) = 1 + [2|n] + 2*[3|n] + 2*[6|n] = (15 + 5*(-1)^n + 4*cos(n*Pi/3) + 12*cos(n*2*Pi/3))/6, where [x|y] is 1 if x divides y, 0 otherwise. Mitch Harris (Harris.Mitchell(AT)mgh.harvard.edu) Jun 15, 2005.

PROGRAM

(PARI) g(n) = for(x=0, n, print1(gcd(x^2-6, x^2+6)", "))
