Irregular table read by rows: T(m,n) is the number of non-isomorphic groups G such that G is the semidirect product of C_m and C_n, where C_m is a normal subgroup of G and C_n is a subgroup of G, 1 <= n <= A002322(m).

The semidirect product of C_m and C_n has group representation G = <x, y|x^m = y^n = 1, yxy^(-1) = x^r>, where r is any number such that r^n == 1 (mod m). Two groups G = <x, y|x^m = y^n = 1, yxy^(-1) = x^r> and G' = <x, y|x^m = y^n = 1, yxy^(-1) = x^s> are isomorphic if and only if there exists some k, gcd(k,n) = 1 such that r^k == s (mod m), in which case f(x^i*y^j) = x^i*y^(k*j) is an isomorphic mapping from G to G'.
Given m, T(m,n) only depends on the value of gcd(n,psi(m)), psi = A002322 (Carmichael lambda). So each row of A327924 is periodic with period psi(m), so we have this for an alternative version.
Every number k occurs in the table. By Dirichlet's theorem on arithmetic progressions, there exists a prime p such that p == 1 (mod 2^(k-1)), then T(p,2^(k-1)) = d(gcd(2^(k-1),p-1)) = k (see the formula below). For example, T(5,4) = 3, T(17,8) = 4, T(17,16) = 5, T(97,32) = 6, T(193,64) = 7, ...
Row m and Row m' are the same if and only if (Z/mZ)* = (Z/m'Z)*, where (Z/mZ)* is the multiplicative group of integers modulo m. The if part is clear; for the only if part, note that the two sequences {(number of x in (Z/mZ)* such that x^n = 1)}_{n>=1} and {T(m,n)}_{n>=1} determine each other, and the structure of a finite abelian group G is uniquely determined by the sequence {(number of x in G such that x^n = 1)}_{n>=1}. - Jianing Song, May 16 2022

FORMULA
|
T(m,n) = Sum_{d|n} (number of elements x such that ord(x,m) = d)/phi(d), where ord(x,m) is the multiplicative order of x modulo m, phi = A000010.
Equivalently, T(m,n) = Sum_{d|gcd(n,psi(m))} (number of elements x such that ord(x,m) = d)/phi(d). - Jianing Song, May 16 2022
For odd primes p, T(p^e,n) = d(gcd(n,(p-1)*p^(e-1))) = A051194((p-1)*p^(e-1),n), d = A000005; for e >= 3, T(2^e,n) = 2*(v2(n)+1) for even n and 1 for odd n, where v2 is the 2-adic valuation.

Table starts
m = 1: 1;
m = 2: 1;
m = 3: 1, 2;
m = 4: 1, 2;
m = 5: 1, 2, 1, 3;
m = 6: 1, 2;
m = 7: 1, 2, 2, 2, 1, 4;
m = 8: 1, 4;
m = 9: 1, 2, 2, 2, 1, 4;
m = 10: 1, 2, 1, 3;
m = 11: 1, 2, 1, 2, 2, 2, 1, 2, 1, 4;
m = 12: 1, 4;
m = 13: 1, 2, 2, 3, 1, 4, 1, 3, 2, 2, 1, 6;
m = 14: 1, 2, 2, 2, 1, 4;
m = 15: 1, 4, 1, 6;
m = 16: 1, 4, 1, 6;
m = 17: 1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 2, 1, 4, 1, 2, 1, 3, 1, 2, 1, 5;
m = 18: 1, 2, 2, 2, 1, 4;
m = 19: 1, 2, 2, 2, 1, 4, 1, 2, 3, 2, 1, 4, 1, 2, 2, 2, 1, 6;
m = 20: 1, 4, 1, 6;
Example shows that T(21,6) = 6: The semidirect product of C_21 and C_6 has group representation G = <x, y|x^21 = y^6 = 1, yxy^(-1) = x^r>, where r = 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 13, 16, 17, 19, 20. Since 2^5 == 11 (mod 21), 4^5 == 16 (mod 21), 5^5 == 17 (mod 21), 10^5 == 19 (mod 21), there are actually four pairs of isomorphic groups, giving a total of 8 non-isomorphic groups.
