Comments

A periodic factorization of n is a finite multiset of positive integers greater than 1 whose product is n and whose multiplicities have a common divisor greater than 1. Note that a factorization of a number that is not a perfect power (A007916) is always aperiodic (A303386), so the indices of nonzero entries of this sequence all lie at perfect powers (A001597).

Formula

a(n) <= A303553(n) <= A001055(n). - Antti Karttunen, Dec 06 2018

Example

The a(900) = 5 periodic factorizations are (2*2*3*3*5*5), (2*2*15*15), (3*3*10*10), (5*5*6*6), (30*30).
