a(p) = p-3 for any odd prime p. a(2n) = a(3n) = 0.
a(n) > 0 if and only if n is coprime to 6. - Chai Wah Wu, Aug 26 2016
Multiplicative by the Chinese remainder theorem. - Andrew Howroyd, Aug 07 2018
From Eduard I. Vatutin, Nov 03 2020: (Start)
a(n) is the number of cyclic diagonal Latin squares of order n with the first row in order. Every cyclic diagonal Latin square is a cyclic Latin square, so a(n) <= A000010(n). Every cyclic diagonal Latin square is pandiagonal, but the converse is not true. For example, for order n=13 there is a square

FORMULA

Multiplicative with a(2^e) = 0 and a(p^e) = (p-3)*p^(e-1) for odd primes p. - Amiram Eldar, Nov 22 2020
a(2*n+1) = A338562(n) / (2*n+1)!. - Eduard I. Vatutin, Apr 02 2021

EXAMPLE
|
The positive integers which are both coprime to 25 and are <= 25 are 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9,11,12,13,14,16,17,18,19,21,22,23,24. Of these integers there are 10 integers k where (k-1) and (k+1) are also coprime to 25. These integers k are 2,3,7,8,12,13,17,18,22,23. So a(25) = 10.
