Formula

Dirichlet g.f.: 1/(zeta(x)*zeta(x-4)).

Multiplicative with a(p^1) = -1 - p^4, a(p^2) = p^4, a(p^e) = 0 for e>=3. - Mitch Harris, Jun 27 2005

a(n) = Sum_{d|n} mu(n/d)*mu(d)*d^4. - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Nov 06 2018

From Peter Bala, Jan 17 2024: (Start)

a(n) = Sum_{d divides n} d * A053825(d) * phi(n/d), where the totient function phi(n) = A000010(n).

a(n) = Sum_{d divides n} d^2 * (sigma_2(d))^(-1) * J_2(n/d),

a(n) = Sum_{d divides n} d^3 * (sigma_1(d))^(-1) * J_3(n/d), and for k >= 0,

a(n) = Sum_{d divides n} d^4 * (sigma_k(d))^(-1) * J_(k+4)(n/d), where (sigma_k(n))^(-1) denotes the Dirichlet inverse of the divisor sum function sigma_k(n) and J_k(n) denotes the Jordan totient function. (End)
