%N a(n) = n^2 - phi(n)*sigma(n).

%C Always >0 for n>0. a(n)=1 if n is prime.

%C If p is a prime and k is a natural number then a(p^k)=p^(k-1) because a(p^k)=(p^k)^2-sigma(p^k)*phi(p^k) =p^(2k)-(p-1)*p^(k-1)*(p^(k+1)-1)/(p-1)=p^(k-1). If n is a composite number then a(n)>1 and a(1)=0, so n is prime iff a(n)=1. - _Farideh Firoozbakht_, Nov 15 2005
