Equivalently: If n = 2^x * 3^y * f with gcd(f, 2) * gcd(f, 3) = 1 and x, y >= 0 and f > 0, then: a(n) = 2^(x - x mod 2 + y mod 2) * 3^(y - y mod 2 + x mod 2) * f for n > 0.
A self-inverse permutation of the natural numbers, i.e., a(a(n)) = n for all n.
Multiplicative but not completely multiplicative (see formula).

FORMULA
|
Multiplicative with a(p^e) = p^e if e is even or p > 3, a(2^e) = 3 * 2^(e-1) and a(3^e) = 2 * 3^(e-1) if e is odd.
Let n = 2^(2*x+r) * 3^(2*y+s) * Product_{prime p > 3} p^z(p) with 0 <= r,s <= 1; then a(n) = 2^(2*x+s) * 3^(2*y+r) * Product_{prime p > 3} p^z(p); especially: a(n) = n * 2 / 3 if r < s, a(n) = n if r = s, and a(n) = n * 3 / 2 if r > s.

EXAMPLE

n = 40320 = 2^(2*3+1)*3^(2*1+0)*5*7, then a(n) = 2^(2*3+0)*3^(2*1+1)*5*7 = 60480.
