n and a(n) have the same prime factors, except when 2 divides n but 4 does not divide n, then n/2 and a(n) have the same prime factors.

FORMULA
|
Sign(a(n)) = (-1)^(phi(n)*(phi(n)-1)/2). Magnitude: For prime p, a(p) = p^(p-2). For n = p^e, a prime power, a(n) = p^(((p-1)e-1) p^(e-1)). For n = prod p_i^e_i, a product of prime powers, a(n) = prod a(p_i^e_i)^phi(n/p_i^e_i).
a(n) = Sign(a(n))*(n^phi(n))/product(p^(phi(n)/(p-1)),p|n). See the Ribenboim reference, p. 297, eq.(1), with the sign taken from the previous formula and n=2 included. [From Wolfdieter Lang, Aug 03 2011]

EXAMPLE

a(100) = 2^40 5^70.
a(100) = ((-1)^(40*39/2))*(100^40)/(2^(40/1)*5^(40/4)) = +2^40*5^70. [From Wolfdieter Lang, Aug 03 2011]
