COMMENTS
a(n) is the determinant of the symmetric n X n matrix M defined by M(i,j) = psi(gcd(i,j)) for 1 <= i,j <= n, where psi(n) is the Dedekind psi function (A001615).

FORMULA
a(n) = Product_{k=1..n} A063659(k).
Limit_{n->oo} a(n)^(1/n)/n = (1/e) * Product_{p prime} (1-1/p^2)^(1/p^2) = 0.33716171551022527677... . This constant equals exp(-c), where c = 1 - Sum_{p prime} log(1 - 1/p^2)/p^2 = 1 + Sum_{k>=2} P(2*k)/(k-1) = 1.087192595746731153648..., and P is the prime zeta function.
