%N Quotient of n over the maximum connected divisor of n.

%C Requires A305079(n) steps to reach 1, the only fixed point.

%C A number n with prime factorization n = prime(m_1)^s_1 * ... * prime(m_k)^s_k is connected if the simple labeled graph with vertex set {m_1,...,m_k} and edges between any two vertices with a common divisor greater than 1 is connected. Connected numbers are listed in A305078.
