FORMULA
Multiplicative with a(p^e) = ((p^2+p-1)*p^(e-1) - (-1)^e)/(p+1).
a(n) >= A000010(n), with equality if and only if n = 1.
Dirichlet g.f.: (zeta(s-1)*zeta(2*s)/zeta(s)) * Product_{p prime} (1 + 1/p^s - 1/p^(3*s)).
Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ c * n^2 / 2, where c = Product_{p prime} (1 - 1/p^2 + 1/(p^2+1)) = 0.93749428273130025078... .
MATHEMATICA
f[p_, e_] := ((p^2+p-1)*p^(e-1) - (-1)^e)/(p+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~, ((f[i, 1]^2+f[i, 1]-1)*f[i, 1]^(f[i, 2]-1) - (-1)^f[i, 2])/(f[i, 1] + 1)); }
