Amiram Eldar, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..10000
FORMULA
Multiplicative with a(p^e) = 2 for p = 2 and 3, and a(p^e) = e+1 for a prime p >= 5.
a(n) <= A000005(n), with equality if and only if n is neither divisible by 4 nor by 9.
a(n) >= A034444(n), with equality if and only if n is not divisible by a square of a prime >= 5.
Dirichlet g.f.: (1-1/4^s) * (1-1/9^s) * zeta(s)^2.
Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ (2*n/3) * (log(n) + 2*gamma - 1 + 2*log(2)/3 + log(3)/4), where gamma is Euler's constant (A001620).
MATHEMATICA
f[p_, e_] := If[p <= 3 , 2, e + 1]; a[1] = 1; a[n_] := Times @@ f @@@ FactorInteger[n]; Array[a, 100]
PROG
(PARI) a(n) = {my(f = factor(n)); prod(i = 1, #f~, if(f[i, 1] <= 3, 2, f[i, 2]+1)); }
