%F a(n) = log_2(A006519(9^n - 1)). - _Alonso del Arte_, Feb 08 2013

%F a(n) = 2*tau(4*n)/(tau(4*n) - tau(n)), where tau(n) = A000005(n). - _Peter Bala_, Jan 06 2021

%F Asymptotic mean: Limit_{m->oo} (1/m) * Sum_{k=1..m} a(k) = 4. - _Amiram Eldar_, Nov 28 2022

%e For n = 2, we see that -1 + 3^4 = 80 = 2^4 * 5 so a(2) = 4.

%e For n = 3, we see that -1 + 3^6 = 728 = 2^3 * 7 * 13, so a(3) = 3.
