Formula

T(n,1) = 1; T(n,n) = phi(n), where phi is Euler's totient function (A000010).

For p prime: T(p,i) = i for 1 <= i < p and T(p,p) = p-1.

T(n,k) = Sum_{mu(d)*floor(k/d): n mod d = 0}, where mu is the Moebius Function (A008683).

Sum_{k=1..n} T(n,k) = (n+2)*phi(n)/2 = A092790(n+1) for n >= 2. - Amiram Eldar, May 12 2025
