%N a(n) is the number of connected components in the Fermi-Dirac factorization of n (see Comments for precise definition).

%C For any n > 0:

%C - let F(n) be the set of distinct Fermi-Dirac primes (A050376) with product n,

%C - let G(n) be the undirected graph with vertices F(n) and the following connection rules: for any k >= 0 and any pair of consecutive prime numbers (p, q):

%C - p^(2^k) and p^(2^(k+1)) are connected,

%C - p^(2^k) and q^(2^k) are connected,

%C - a(n) is the number of connected components in G(n).

%C The sequence may be specified algebraically by formulas (1) to (2c) in my contemporary entry in the formula section. - _Peter Munn_, Jan 05 2021

%F If m and n are coprime, then a(m * n) <= a(m) + a(n).

%F a(p^k) = A069010(k) for any k >= 0 and any prime number p.

%F a(n) <= A064547(n).

%F a(A002110(k)) = 1 for any k > 0.

%F a(A066205(k)) = k for any k > 0.

%F From _Peter Munn_, Jan 05 2021: (Start)

%F (1) a(1) = 0, otherwise a(n) > 0.

%F For any k, n > 0:

%F (2a) a(A050376(k)) = 1;

%F (2b) a(A059896(n,k)) <= a(n) + a(k);

%F (2c) a(A059896(n,k)) = a(n) + a(k) if and only if A059895(A306697(n,24), k) = 1 and A059895(n, A306697(k,24)) = 1.

%F For any n > 0, write n = j * k^2 * m^4, j, k squarefree, m > 0:

%F (3a) a(n) <= a(j) + a(k) + a(m);

%F (3b) if gcd(j, k) = 1, a(n) = a(j) + a(n/j);

%F (3c) if gcd(j, k) = j, a(n) = a(n/j);

%F (3d) if gcd(k, m) = 1, a(n) = a(n/m^4) + a(m^4);

%F (3e) if gcd(j, k) = k and gcd(k, m) = 1, a(n) = a(j) + a(m).

%F For any n > 0:

%F (4a) a(n^2) = a(A003961(n)) = a(A225546(n)) = a(n);

%F (4b) a(n) = a(A340346(n)) + a(n/A340346(n)).

%F For any odd n > 0 (with k >= 0, m >= 0):

%F (5) If n = 9^k * (6m + 1) or n = 9^k * (6m + 5) then a(2n) = a(n) + 1; otherwise a(2n) = a(n).

%F (End)

%e For n = 67!:

%e - the Fermi-Dirac primes p^(2^k) in F(67!) can be depicted as:

%e 6|@

%e 5|

%e 4| @

%e 3| @@@

%e 2| @@ @@

%e ---+-------------------

%e k/p| 111122334445566

%e |2357137939171373917

%e - G(67!) has 4 connected components:

%e - hence a(67!) = 4.

%Y Cf. A064547, A069010.

%Y A050376, A059895, A059896, A306697 are used in a formula defining this sequence.

%Y A329050 corresponds to the array depicted in the first example, with prime(n+1) = p.

%Y The formula section details how the sequence maps the terms of A002110, A066205.

%Y A003961, A225546, A340346 are used to express relationship between terms of this sequence.
