Formula

a(n) = Sum_{ d | n } A215337(d). - Joerg Arndt, Aug 13 2012

a(n) = (1/n) * Sum_{d | n} totient(n/d) * A124698(n). - Andrew Howroyd, Mar 18 2017

Example

All solutions for n=3:
..5....1....3....2....2....4....4....4....1....3....2....3....1
..5....1....4....2....2....4....5....4....1....3....3....3....2
..5....1....4....3....2....5....5....4....2....3....3....4....2

Mathematica

sn[n_, k_] := 1/n*Sum[DivisorSum[n, EulerPhi[#]*(1 + 2*Cos[i*Pi/(k + 1)])^(n/#)&], {i, 1, k}]; Table[sn[n, 5], {n, 1, 34}] // Simplify (* Jean-François Alcover, Oct 31 2017, after Joerg Arndt *)
