Comments

For a sequence A with terms a(1), a(2), a(3).... , let R(0) = 1, and for k >= 1 let R(k) = rad(a(1)*a(2)*...*a(k)). Define the Rad-transform of A to be R(n)/R(n-1); n >= 1, where rad is A007947. This sequence is the Rad transform of the squarefree numbers, A = A005117; see Example.

The sequence consists of only 1's and primes.

Sequence is obtained directly from A005117 by leaving all primes and a(1) = 1 untouched, and replacing all composite squarefree numbers with 1. Alternatively: in A000027, delete all squarefull numbers (A013929), replace all squarefree composites with 1, leave primes untouched and concatenate.

Example

For A005117, R(k) (k >= 0) is 1 U A128040. That is, 1,1,2,6,30,30,210,... from which: a(1) = 1/1 = 1, a(2) = 2/1 = 2, a(3) = 6/2 = 3, 4(4) = 30/6 = 5, a(5) = 30/30 = 1, and so on. Note that the first term of R(k) is 1, the empty product (product of the first 0 terms of A005117).

Mathematica

k = r = s = 1; f[x_] := f[x] = Times @@ FactorInteger[x][[All, 1]]; Reap[Do[While[! SquareFreeQ[k], k++]; s = f[s*f[k]]; Sow[s/r]; r = s; k++, {n, 120}] ][[-1, 1]] (* Michael De Vlieger, Apr 19 2024 *)
