This sequence for a(n) also arises in the following context. If f(x) is a monic univariate polynomial of degree d>1 over Zn (= Z/nZ, the ring of integers modulo n), and we let X be the number of distinct roots of f(x) in Zn taken over all n^d choices for f(x), then the variance Var[X] = a(n)/n and the expected value E[X] = 1. - Michael Monagan, Sep 11 2015

FORMULA
|
a(p) = p-1 for a prime p.
a(n) = A018804(n)-n = Sum_{ d divides n } (d-1)*phi(n/d). - Vladeta Jovovic, May 04 2002
a(n+2) = sum{k=0..n, gcd(n-k+1, k+1)} = -sum{k=0..4n+2, gcd(4n-k+3, k+1)(-1)^k/4} - Paul Barry, May 03 2005

|
EXAMPLE
|
a(12) = GCD(12,1) + GCD(12,2) + ... GCD(12,11) = 1+2+3+4+1+6+1+4+3+2+1 = 28.
