COMMENT

G.f.: Sum_{n>=1} a(n)*x^n/n = log(F(x)), where F(x) is the g.f. of A117210 and satisfies: (1+x) = product_{n>=1} F(x^n).

FORMULA

a(n) = A023900(n) if n (mod 4) = 1 or 3, a(n) = 3*A023900(n) if n (mod 4) = 2, a(n) = -A023900(n) if n (mod 4) = 0, where A023900 is the Dirichlet inverse of Euler totient function.

G.f.: A(x) = sum_{k>=1} mu(k) k x^k/(1 + x^k) where mu(k) is the Moebius (Mobius) function, A008683 - Stuart Clary (clary(AT)uakron.edu), Apr 15, 2006

G.f.: A(x) is x times the logarithmic derivative of A117210(x). - Stuart Clary (clary(AT)uakron.edu), Apr 15, 2006

G.f.: A(x) = A023900(x) - 2 A023900(x^2) - Stuart Clary (clary(AT)uakron.edu), Apr 15, 2006

a(n) = sum_{d|n} (-1)^(n/d - 1) mu(d) d. - Stuart Clary (clary(AT)uakron.edu), Apr 15, 2006

EXAMPLE

For n=6, Sum_{d|6} a(d)/d = a(1)/1 + a(2)/2 + a(3)/3 + a(6)/6 = 1/1 - 3/2 - 2/3 + 6/6 = -1/6.

MATHEMATICA

nmax = 72; Drop[ CoefficientList[ Series[ Sum[ MoebiusMu[k] k x^k/(1 + x^k), {k, 1, nmax} ], {x, 0, nmax} ], x ], 1 ] - Stuart Clary (clary(AT)uakron.edu), Apr 15, 2006

PROGRAM

(PARI) a(n)=sumdiv(n, d, d*moebius(d))*[1, 3, 1, -1][(n-1)%4+1]
