COMMENTS

The Sagher map sends Product p_i^e_i / Product q_i^f_i (p_i and q_i being distinct primes) to Product p_i^(2e_i) * Product q_i^(2f_i-1). This is multiplicative.

a(n^2) = n, A071975(n^2) = 1, cf. A000290; a(2*(2*n-1)^2) = 2*n+1, A071975(2*(2*n-1)^2) = 2, cf. A077591; [Reinhard Zumkeller, Jul 10 2011]

FORMULA

If n=Product p_i^e_i, then a_n=Product p_i^f(e_i), where f(n)=n/2 if n is even and f(n)=0 if n is odd - Reiner Martin (reinermartin(AT)hotmail.com), Jul 08 2002

EXAMPLE

The Sagher map sends the following fractions to 1, 2, 3, 4, ...: 1/1, 1/2, 1/3, 2/1, 1/5, 1/6, 1/7, 1/4, 3/1, ...

MATHEMATICA

f[{p_, a_}] := If[EvenQ[a], p^(a/2), 1]; a[n_] := Times@@(f/@FactorInteger[n])

PROG

(PARI) a(n)=local(v=factor(n)~); prod(k=1, length(v), if(v[2, k]%2, 1, v[1, k]^(v[2, k]/2)))
