COMMENTS
The zeros of this sequences are the powerful numbers (A001694). There are no arbitrarily long subsequences with a given upper bound; for example, every sequence of 4 values includes one divisible by 2 but not 4, so there are no more than 3 consecutive zeros. Similarly, there can be no more than 23 consecutive values with none divisible by both 2 and 3 but neither 4 nor 9 (so a(n) >= 2), etc. In general, this gives an upper bound that is a (relatively) small multiple of the k-th primorial number (prime(k)#). One suspects that the actual upper bounds for such subsequences are quite a bit lower; e.g., Erdős conjectured that there are no three consecutive powerful numbers. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Aug 08 2006
In particular, for every A048670(k)*A002110(k) consecutive terms, at least one is greater than or equal to k. - Charlie Neder, Jan 03 2019
Following Catalan's conjecture (which became Mihăilescu's theorem in 2002), the first case of two consecutive zeros in this sequence is for a(8) and a(9), because 8 = 2^3 and 9 = 3^2, and there are no other consecutive zeros for consecutive powers. However, there are other pairs of consecutive zeros at powerful numbers (A001694, A060355). The next example is a(288) = a(289) = 0, because 288 = 2^5 * 3^2 and 289 = 17^2, then also a(675) and a(676). - Bernard Schott, Jan 06 2019
a(2k-1) is the number of primes p such that p || x + y and p^2 || x^(2k-1) + y^(2k-1) for some positive integers x and y. For any positive integers x, y and k > 1, there is no prime p such that p || x + y and p^2 || x^(2k) + y^(2k). - Jinyuan Wang, Apr 08 2020

FORMULA
A prime factor of n is unitary iff its exponent is 1 in prime factorization of n. In general, gcd(p, n/p) = 1 or = p.
Additive with a(p^e) = 1 if e = 1, 0 otherwise.
a(n) = #{k: A124010(n,k) = 1, k = 1..A001221}. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Sep 10 2013
From Antti Karttunen, Nov 28 2017: (Start)
a(1) = 0; for n > 1, a(n) = A063524(A067029(n)) + a(A028234(n)).
a(n) = A001221(A055231(n)) = A001222(A055231(n)).
a(n) = A001221(n) - A056170(n) = A001221(n) - A001221(A000188(n)).
a(n) = A001222(n) - A275812(n).
a(n) = A162642(n) - A295662(n).
a(n) <= A162642(n) <= a(n) + A295659(n).
a(n) <= A295664(n).
(End)
Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ n * (log(log(n)) + B - C), where B is Mertens's constant (A077761) and C = Sum_{p prime} (1/p^2) = 0.452247... (A085548). - Amiram Eldar, Sep 28 2023
EXAMPLE
9 = 3^2 so a(9) = 0; 10 = 2 * 5 so a(10) = 2; 11 = 11^1 so a(11) = 1.
