COMMENTS
The Matula-Goebel number of a rooted tree can be defined in the following recursive manner: to the one-vertex tree there corresponds the number 1; to a tree T with root degree 1 there corresponds the t-th prime number, where t is the Matula-Goebel number of the tree obtained from T by deleting the edge emanating from the root; to a tree T with root degree m>=2 there corresponds the product of the Matula-Goebel numbers of the m branches of T.

FORMULA
Let b(n)=A184160(n) denote the number of those subtrees of the rooted tree with Matula-Goebel number n that contain the root. Then a(1)=1; if n=prime(t) (=the t=th prime), then a(n)=1+a(t)+b(t); if n=r*s (r,s,>=2), then a(n)=a(r)+a(s)+(b(r)-1)*(b(s)-1)-1. The Maple program is based on this recursive formula.
EXAMPLE
a(4) = 6 because the rooted tree with Matula-Goebel number 4 is V; it has 6 subtrees (three 1-vertex subtrees, two 1-edge subtrees, and the tree itself).
MAPLE
with(numtheory): a := proc (n) local r, s, b: r := proc (n) options operator, arrow: op(1, factorset(n)) end proc: s := proc (n) options operator, arrow: n/r(n) end proc: b := proc (n) if n = 1 then 1 elif bigomega(n) = 1 then 1+b(pi(n)) else b(r(n))*b(s(n)) end if end proc: if n = 1 then 1 elif bigomega(n) = 1 then a(pi(n))+b(pi(n))+1 else a(r(n))+a(s(n))+(b(r(n))-1)*(b(s(n))-1)-1 end if end proc: seq(a(n), n = 1 .. 80);
