%N a(n) is the cototient of n (A051953) iterated 3 times.

%C Iteration of A051953 behaves similarly to that of Euler Phi. Analogous 3rd iterates for A000005 or A000010 are A036455 and A049099.

%C It is assumed here that the value of A051953 at 0 is 0. - _Antti Karttunen_, Dec 22 2017

%e n=50, n_1 = n - phi(n) = 50 - 20 = 30, n_2 = n_1 - Phi(n_1) = 30 - 8 = 22, n_3 = 22 - Phi(22) = 12 so the 50th term is 12.
