Index entries for sequences related to Lyndon words

Formula

a(n) = (1/n) * Sum_{d|n} mu(n/d)*n^d.

Asymptotic to n^(n-1) = A000169(n).

a(n) is the n-th term of the inverse Euler transform of j-> n^j. - Alois P. Heinz, Jun 23 2018

a(n) = [x^n] Sum_{k>=1} mu(k)*log(1/(1 - n*x^k))/k. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, May 20 2019

Maple

a:= n-> add(n^d *mobius(n/d), d=divisors(n))/n:
