Apparently also the denominator of A007955(n)/A000005(n). See A291186. - Jaroslav Krizek, Sep 05 2017

FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{d|tau(n)} sigma(tau(n)/d)*mu(d)*gcd(d,n). - Ridouane Oudra, Jun 17 2026
EXAMPLE
20 has 6 positive divisors. The divisors of 6 are 1,2,3,6. The divisors of 6 that are coprime to 20 are 1 and 3. 3 is the largest of these; so a(20) = 3.
