COMMENTS
Equivalently, a(n) is the number of ways to express the cyclic group Z_n as a direct sum of its Hall subgroups. A Hall subgroup of a finite group G is a subgroup whose order is coprime to its index.
a(n) is the number of ways to partition the set of distinct prime factors of n.
Also the number of singleton or pairwise coprime factorizations of n. - Gus Wiseman, Sep 24 2019
FORMULA
a(n) = A000110(A001221(n)).
a(n > 1) = A327517(n) + 1. - Gus Wiseman, Sep 24 2019
EXAMPLE
a(60) = 5 because we have: 60 = 4*3*5 = 4*15 = 3*20 = 5*12.
For n = 36, its unitary divisors are 1, 4, 9, 36. From these we obtain 36 either as 1*36 or 4*9, thus a(36) = 2. - Antti Karttunen, Oct 21 2017
