It seems that a(n) = Max_{j=n+1..2n-1} gcd(n,j). - Labos Elemer, May 22 2002
This is correct: No integer in the range [n+1, 2n-1] has n as its divisor, but certainly at least one multiple of the largest proper divisor of n will occur there (e.g., if it is n/2, then at n + (n/2)). - Antti Karttunen, Dec 18 2014
The slopes of the visible lines made by the points in the scatter plot are 1/2, 1/3, 1/5, 1/7, ... (reciprocals of primes). - Moosa Nasir, Jun 19 2022

Other identities and observations:
For n > 1, a(n) = A003961^(r)(A246277(n)), where r = A055396(n)-1 and A003961^(r)(n) stands for shifting the prime factorization of n by r positions towards larger primes.
(End)
Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ c * n^2, where c = (1/2) * Sum_{k>=1} A005867(k-1)/(prime(k)*A002110(k)) = 0.165049... . - Amiram Eldar, Nov 19 2022
