From R. J. Mathar, Aug 28 2011: (Start)

There are at least three "natural" embeddings of this function into multiplicative functions b(n), c(n) and d(n):

(i) The first is b(n) = 1, 5, 10, 0, 26, 0, 50, ... (n>=1) with b(p) = p^2+1, b(p^e)=0 if e>=2, substituting zero for all composite n.

(ii) The second is c(n) = 1, 5, 10, 9, 26, 50, 50, 17, 28, 130, ... (n>=1) with c(p^e)= p^(e+1)+1.

(iii) The third is d(n) = 1, 5, 10, 5, 26, 50, 50, 5, 10, 130, ... (n>=1) with d(p^e) = p^2+1 if e>=1. (End)

For n > 1, a(n)/2 is of the form 4*k+1. - Altug Alkan, Apr 08 2016

a(n) = 1 + A001248(n).

a(n) = A000203(A000040(n)^3) / A000203(A000040(n)). (End)
