COMMENTS

a(n) is the size of the Frattini subgroup of the cyclic group C_n - Ahmed Fares (ahmedfares(AT)my-deja.com), Jun 07 2001. Also of the Frattini subgroup of the dihedral group with 2*n elements. - Sharon Sela (sharonsela(AT)hotmail.com), Jan 01 2002

Number of solutions to x^m==0 (mod n) provided that n < 2^(m+1), i.e. the sequence of sequences A000188, A000189, A000190, etc. converges to this sequence. - Henry Bottomley (se16(AT)btinternet.com), Sep 18 2001

a(n) is the number of nilpotent elements in the ring Z/nZ. - Laszlo Toth (ltoth(AT)ttk.pte.hu), May 22 2009

The sequence of partial products of a(n) is A085056(n). [From Peter Luschny (peter(AT)luschny.de), Jun 29 2009]
