FORMULA
Multiplicative with a(p^e) = (p - 1)*(p^2 - 1)*(p^3 - 1)*(p^4 - 1)*p^(16*e-10).
a(n) = n^16*Product_{primes p dividing n} (1 - 1/p^4)*(1 - 1/p^3)*(1 - 1/p^2)*(1 - 1/p).
a(n) = phi(n)*A011786(n) = A000010(n)*A011786(n).
Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ c * n^17, where c = (1/17) * Product_{p prime} ((p^11 - p^9 - p^8 + 2*p^5 - p^2 - p + 1)/p^11) = 0.02958150406... . - Amiram Eldar, Oct 23 2022
