FORMULA

a(n) = 1 + Sum_{k=1..A036234(n)} A186974(n,k) if n>0; a(0) = 1.

EXAMPLE

Exactly 4 of the 2^4=16 subsets of the integers from 1 through 4 contain a pair of integers that share a common factor; these are {2,4}, {1,2,4}, {2,3,4} and {1,2,3,4}. The other 12 subsets do not; hence a(4)=12.

CROSSREFS

Cf. A051026 gives the number of primitive subsets. A087080 gives the number of elements in coprime subsets. A087081 gives the sum of the elements in coprime subsets.
