COMMENTS
The Gordon-Scantlebury index of a tree is the number of paths of length 2 between distinct vertices of the tree. See the Trinajstic reference (p. 115). It is 1/2 of the Platt index of the tree (A198332).
The Matula-Goebel number of a rooted tree can be defined in the following recursive manner: to the one-vertex tree there corresponds the number 1; to a tree T with root degree 1 there corresponds the t-th prime number, where t is the Matula-Goebel number of the tree obtained from T by deleting the edge emanating from the root; to a tree T with root degree m>=2 there corresponds the product of the Matula-Goebel numbers of the m branches of T.

FORMULA
a(1)=0; if n=p(t) (the t-th prime, t>=2), then a(n)=a(t)+G(t); if n=rs (r,s>=2), then a(n)=a(r)+a(s)+G(r)G(s); G(m) denotes the number of prime divisors of m counted with multiplicities.
EXAMPLE
a(7)=3 because the rooted tree with Matula-Goebel number 7 is Y; obviously, it has 3 paths of length 2.
MAPLE
