%N a(1) = -1, otherwise a(n) = 0.

%C a(0) = 0; for n >= 1, a(n) = function of negative sign for Dirichlet convolution.

%C a(n) = Dirichlet inverse of itself. a(n) * 0(n) = a(n) * A000004(n) = 0(n) = A000004(n), a(n) * b(n) = -[b(n)], a(n) * a(n) = A063524(n) = A000007(n - 1) for n >= 1 (identity function for Dirichlet convolution), where operation * denotes Dirichlet convolution for n >= 1, b(n) is any function. Dirichlet convolution of functions a(n), b(n) is function c(n) = a(n) * b(n) = Sum_{d|n} a(d)*b(n/d).

%C a(n) = the sum of the cranks of all partitions of n. - _Michael Somos_, Nov 10 2013
