FORMULA

a(1)=1 because the matrix of all zeros has determinant 0, but 0=1 (mod 1). For prime n, a(n)=(n^3-1)n^2. Multiplicative with a(p^e)=(p^3-1)*p^(5e-3). a(n)=A011785(n)/A000056(n).

MATHEMATICA

Table[cnt=0; Do[m={{a, b, c}, {b, d, e}, {c, e, f}}; If[Det[m, Modulus->n]==1, cnt++ ], {a, 0, n-1}, {b, 0, n-1}, {c, 0, n-1}, {d, 0, n-1}, {e, 0, n-1}, {f, 0, n-1}]; cnt, {n, 2, 20}]

CROSSREFS

Cf. A000056 (order of the group SL(2, Z_n)), A011785 (number of 3 X 3 matrices whose determinant is 1 mod n, i.e. order of SL(3, Z_n)).
