%C Denoted by tau(n) in Mycielski (1951), Fehér et al. (2006), and Awel and Küçükaslan (2020).

%C This function depends only on the prime signature of n (see the Formula section).

%F If n = Product_{i} p_i^e_i, then a(n) = sigma(gcd(<e_i>)).

%F Sum_{n>=1} (a(n)-1)/n = Pi^2/6 + 1 (= A013661 + 1) (Mycielski, 1951).

%e 4 = 2^2, gcd(2) = 2, sigma(2) = 3, so a(4) = 3. The representations are 4^1 and 2^2, and 1 + 2 = 3.

%e 144 = 2^4 * 3^2, gcd(4,2) = 2, sigma(2) = 3, so a(144) = 3. The representations are 144^1 and 12^2, and 1 + 2 = 3.
