%N a(n) is the number of nonempty sets of distinct positive integers that have a least common multiple of n.

%C a(n)=1 iff n=1, a(p^k)=2^k, a(p*q)=10; where p & q are unique primes. a(n) cannot equal an odd number >1. - _Robert G. Wilson v_

%C If m has more divisors than n, then a(m) > a(n). - _Matthew Vandermast_, Aug 22 2004

%C If n is of the form p^r*q^s where p & q are distinct primes and r & s are nonnegative integers then a(n)=2^(rs)*(2^(r+s+1) -2^r-2^s+1); for example f(1400846643)=f(3^5*7^8)=2^(5*8)*(2^ (5+8+1)-2^5-2^8+1)=17698838672310272. Also if n=p_1^r_1*p_2^r_2*...*p_k^r_k where p_1,p_2,...,p_k are distinct primes and r_1,r_2,...,r_k are natural numbers then 2^(r_1*r_2*...*r_k)||a(n). - _Farideh Firoozbakht_, Aug 06 2005

%C None of terms is divisible by Mersenne numbers 3 or 7. For any n, a(n) is congruent to A008836(n) mod 3. Since A008836(n) is always 1 or -1, this implies that A000225(2)=3 never divides a(n). - _Matthew Vandermast_, Oct 12 2010

%C There are terms divisible by larger Mersenne numbers. For example, a(2*3*5*7*11*13*19*23^3) is divisible by 31. - _Max Alekseyev_, Nov 18 2010

%F 2^d(n) - 1 = Sum_{m|n} a(m), where d(n) = A000005(n) is the number of divisors of n, so a(n) = Sum_{m|n} mu(n/m)*(2^d(m) - 1).

%F a(n) = 2*A069626(n), for n > 1. - _Ridouane Oudra_, Mar 12 2024

%e a(6) = 10. The sets with LCM 6 are {6}, {1,6}, {2,3}, {2,6}, {3,6}, {1,2,3}, {1,2,6}, {1,3,6}, {2,3,6}, {1,2,3,6}.
