COMMENTS

The Dirichlet generating function of the arithmetic function of the largest t-th power dividing n is zeta(s)*zeta(t*s-t)/zeta(s*t), here with t=2 and in A008834 and A008835 with t=3 and t=4, respectively. - R. J. Mathar, Feb 19 2011

a(n) = A005563(n-1) / A068310(n) for n > 1. [Reinhard Zumkeller, Nov 26 2011]
