COMMENT

a(n) = n-1 for n prime; a(n) = 0 for n a 3rd power.

EXAMPLE

n = 9 = 3*1*3 = 3*(3-2)*(3+0) with d = 3, b = 2, c = 0. So a(9) = k = 2+0 = 2, since there is no solution with k = 1.

PROGRAM

(MAGMA) [ Min(v) where v is [ b+c: d, y, z in Divisors(n) | d*(d-b)*(d+c) eq n and d ge 0 and b ge 0 and c ge 0 where b is d-y where c is z-d ]: n in [1..85] ];
