COMMENTS

The sequence A001643 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 n-th term of A001643, then the n-th term is u(n) = (1/n)* Sum_{ d divides n }\mu(d)a(n/d)

EXAMPLE

u(7) = 10 since a map whose periodic points are counted by A001643 would have 1 fixed point and 71 points of period 7, hence 10 orbits of length 7.
