%N G.f.: Sum_{n>=1} a(n)*x^n/(1 - x^n) = Sum_{n>=1} x^(n^3).

%C Compare to Liouville's function lambda (A008836) which satisfies the Lambert series identity: Sum_{n>=1} lambda(n)*x^n/(1-x^n) = Sum_{n>=1} x^(n^2).

%C This is a multiplicative sequence with Dirichlet g.f. zeta(3s)/zeta(s) and inverse Mobius transform in A010057. - _R. J. Mathar_, Mar 31 2012

%F a(n) == d(n) (mod 3), where d(n) is the number of divisors of n;

%F a(n) = 0 iff the number of divisors of n is divisible by 3 (A059269),

%F a(n) = 1 iff d(n) == 1 (mod 3),

%F a(n) = -1 iff d(n) == 2 (mod 3).

%F Multiplicative with a(p^e) = -1 + ((e+2) mod 3). Thus the Dirichlet g.f. is indeed zeta(3s)/zeta(s). Also sumdiv(n,d,a(d))=1 iff n is a cube, else sumdiv(n,d,a(d))=0 hence Sum_{k=1..n} a(k)*floor(n/k) = floor(n^(1/3)). - _Benoit Cloitre_, Oct 28 2012
