COMMENTS
The sequence A001642 seems to record the number of points of period n under a map. The number of orbits of length n for this map gives the sequence above.

FORMULA
a(n) = (1/n)* Sum_{ d divides n } mu(d)*A001642(n/d).
EXAMPLE
u(7) = 9 since a map whose periodic points are counted by A001642 would have 1 fixed point and 64 points of period 7, hence 9 orbits of length 7.
PROG
(PARI) a001642(n) = if(n<0, 0, polcoeff(x*(1+2*x+4*x^3+5*x^4)/(1-x-x^2-x^4-x^5)+x*O(x^n), n));
a(n) = (1/n)*sumdiv(n, d, moebius(d)*a001642(n/d)); \\ Michel Marcus, Sep 11 2017
