COMMENTS

The sequence A006953 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 A006953, then the n-th term is u(n) = (1/n)* Sum_{d|n}\mu(d)a(n/d)

EXAMPLE

u(3) = 80 since a map whose periodic points are counted by A006953 has 12 fixed points and 252 points of period 3, hence 80 orbits of length 3.
