%e From _M. F. Hasler_, Nov 23 2021: (Start)

%e For n = 2, the only prime factor of n is p = 2, and p-1 = 1 divides n-1 = 1, therefore a(2) = LCM { 1 } = 1.

%e For n = 35, the prime factors of n are p = 5 and p = 7; but neither 5-1 = 4 nor 7-1 = 6 divides n-1 = 34, therefore a(35) = LCM {} = 1. (End)
