COMMENTS

The sequence A000984 seems to record the number of points of period n under a map. The number of orbits of length n for this map gives the sequence above.

FORMULA

If a(n) is the sequence A000984, then the n-th term is u(n) = (1/n)* Sum_{ d divides n }\mu(d)a(n/d)

EXAMPLE

u(5) = 50 because if a map has A000984 as its periodic points, then it would have 2 fixed points and 252 points of period 5, hence 50 orbits of length 5.
