Formula

Multiplicative with a(p^e) = (9*(p-3))^e. If n = Product p(k)^e(k) then a(n) = Product (9*(p(k)-3))^e(k).

a(3k) = 0 for k >= 1.

a(n) = A165830(n) * A166589(n) = 9^bigomega(n) * A166589(n) = 9^A001222(n) * A166589(n).

Mathematica

a[1] = 1; a[n_] := (fi = FactorInteger[n]; Times @@ ((fi[[All, 1]] - 3)^fi[[All, 2]])); Table[a[n]*9^PrimeOmega[n], {n, 1, 100}] (* G. C. Greubel, Jun 09 2016 *)
