COMMENTS

a(n)+1 is also the total number of factors in a factorization of n+n*i into Gaussian primes. - Jason Kimberley, Dec 17 2011

FORMULA

Fully additive with a(p)=2 if p=2 or p mod 4=1 and a(p)=1 if p mod 4=3. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Jan 20 2003

a(n) depends on the number of primes of the forms 4k+1 (A083025) and 4k-1 (A065339) and on the highest power of 2 dividing n (A007814): a(n) = 2*A007814(n) + 2*A083025(n) + A065339(n) - T. D. Noe (noe(AT)sspectra.com), Jul 14 2003

EXAMPLE

2 = (1+i)*(1-i), so a(2) = 2; 9 = 3*3, so a(9) = 2.

a(1006655265000) = a(2^3*3^2*5^4*7^5*11^3) = 3*a(2)+2*a(3)+4*a(5)+5*a(7)+3*a(11) = 3*2+2*1+4*2+5*1+3*1 = 24. - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), Jan 20 2003
