Except for the first term, this appears to be the number of pairs of integers i,j with 1 <= i <= n, 1 <= j <= i, such that i+j == i*j (mod n), for n=1,2,3,... - John W. Layman, Oct 19 2011
Layman's observation holds since i+j == i*j (mod n) is equivalent to (i-1)*(j-1) == 1 (mod n). - Max Alekseyev, Oct 22 2011
For i > 1, equal to the number of elements x relatively prime to n such that x mod n >= x^(-1) mod n. - Jeffrey Shallit, Jun 14 2018
