COMMENTS

The graph of this sequence is made up of four linear functions: a(n_odd)=n, a(n=2+4i)=n/2, a(4+8i)=n/4, a(8i)=n/8. Zak Seidov (zakseidov!ahoo.com), Oct 30, 2006. In general, f(n) = numerator of n/(n+m) consists of linear functions n/d_i, where d_i are divisors of m (including 1 and m).

Multiplicative with a(2^e) = 2^max(0,e-3). a(p^e) = p^e if p>2. - R. J. Mathar, Apr 18 2011

FORMULA

a(n)= +2*a(n-8) -a(n-16).

G.f.: x* (x^2-x+1) * (x^12 +2*x^11 +4*x^10 +3*x^9 +4*x^8 +4*x^7 +7*x^6 +4*x^5 +4*x^4 +3*x^3 +4*x^2 +2*x +1) / ( (x-1)^2 *(1+x)^2 *(x^2+1)^2 *(x^4+1)^2 ). - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Dec 02 2010

a(n) = A109049(n)/8. Dirichlet g.f. zeta(s-1)*(1-1/2^s-1/2^(2s)-1/2^(3s)). - R. J. Mathar, Apr 18 2011
