Conjectured to be a rearrangement of the natural numbers.
This is a self-inverse permutation of the positive integers, as shown by the formula. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Jul 31 2006

FORMULA
|
By repeatedly taking the square root, represent n in the form m^(2^k), where m is not a square and k>=0. If k is even, a(n) = m^(2^(k+1)); if k is odd, a(n) = m^(2^(k-1)). - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Jul 31 2006
