FORMULA
Multiplicative with a(p^e) = p^(8*e-5)*(p^3 - 1)*(p^2 - 1). - Vladeta Jovovic, Nov 18 2001
For a formula see A064767.
a(n) = A046970(n)*A063453(n)*A000578(n)*A003557(n)^5. - R. J. Mathar, Mar 30 2011
a(n) = A064767(n)/phi(n). - Jianing Song, Nov 24 2018
Sum_{k>=1} 1/a(k) = Product_{primes p} (1 + p^5/((p-1)^3 * (p+1)^2 * (p^2 + p + 1) * (p^6 + p^4 + p^2 + 1))) = 1.0061577672748872278355775942508642214184417621389767880397578015151659965... - Vaclav Kotesovec, Sep 19 2020
Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ c * n^9, where c = (1/9) * Product_{p prime} (1 - (p^3 + p^2 -1)/p^6) = 0.08630488937... . - Amiram Eldar, Oct 23 2022
MATHEMATICA
a[n_] := (n^9*Times @@ Function[p, (1 - 1/p^3)*(1 - 1/p^2)*(1 - 1/p)] /@ FactorInteger[n][[All, 1]])/EulerPhi[n]; a[1] = 1; Array[a, 30] (* Jean-François Alcover, Mar 21 2017 *)
PROG
(PARI) a(n) = n^9*prod(k=2, n, if (!isprime(k) || (n % k), 1, (1-1/k^3)*(1-1/k^2)*(1-1/k)))/eulerphi(n); \\ Michel Marcus, Jun 30 2015
