Example

For n=12, 7^12+1=13841287202=2*73*193*409*1201 has four prime factors of form, namely 73=6n+1, 193=16n+1, 409=34n+1, 1201=100n+1. Thus a(12)=4.

Mathematica

m = 7; n = 2; nmax = 100;
While[n <= nmax, {l = FactorInteger[m^n + 1]; s = 0;
     For[i = 1, i <= Length[l],
      i++, {p = l[[i, 1]];
       If[IntegerQ[(p - 1)/n] == True, s = s + l[[i, 2]]]; }];
     a[n] = s; } n++; ];
Table[a[n], {n, 2, nmax}]
Table[{p, e}=Transpose[FactorInteger[7^n+1]]; Sum[If[Mod[p[[i]], n]==1, e[[i]], 0], {i, Length[p]}], {n, 2, 50}]
