%N a(n) = (1/n) * Sum_{ d divides n } mu(n/d) * (2^d - 1).

%C Dimensions of the homogeneous parts of the free Lie algebra with one generator in 1,2,3, etc. (Lie analog of the partition numbers).

%C This sequence is the Lie analog of the partition sequence (which gives the dimensions of the homogeneous polynomials with one generator in each degree) or similarly, of the partitions into distinct (or odd numbers) (which gives the dimensions of the homogeneous parts of the exterior algebra with one generator in each dimension).

%C The number of cycles of length n of rectangle shapes in the process of repeatedly cutting a square off the end of the rectangle. For example, the one cycle of length 1 is the golden rectangle. - David Pasino (davepasino(AT)yahoo.com), Jan 29 2009

%C In music, the number of distinct rhythms, at a given tempo, produced by a continuous repetition of measures with identical patterns of 1's and 0's (where 0 means no beat, and 1 means one beat), where each measure allows for n possible beats of uniform character, and when counted under these two conditions: (i) the starting and ending times for the measure are unknown or irrelevant and (ii) identical rhythms that can be produced by using a measure with fewer than n possible beats are excluded from the count. - _Richard R. Forberg_, Apr 22 2013

%C Richard R. Forberg's comment does not hold for n=1 because a(1)=1 but there are the two possible rhythms: "0" and "1". - _Herbert Kociemba_, Oct 24 2016

%C The comment does hold for n=1 as the rhythm "0" can be produced by using a measure of 0 beats and so is properly excluded from a(1)=1 by condition (ii) of the comment. - _Travis Scott_, May 28 2022

%C a(n) is also the number of Lyndon compositions (aperiodic necklaces of positive integers) with sum n. - _Gus Wiseman_, Dec 19 2017

%C Mobius transform of A008965. - _Jianing Song_, Nov 13 2021

%e a(4)=3: the 3 elements [a,c], [a[a,b]] and d form a basis of all homogeneous elements of degree 4 in the free Lie algebra with generators a of degree 1, b of degree 2, c of degree 3 and d of degree 4.
