COMMENTS
Fib(n) = A000045(n) = Product_{d|n} a(d), Lucas(n) = A000204(n) = Product_{d|2n and 2^m|d iff 2^m|2n} a(d) (e.g., Lucas(4) = 7 = a(8), Lucas(6) = 18 = a(12)*a(4)). - Len Smiley, Nov 11 2001
A 2001 Iranian Mathematical Olympiad question shows such a sequence exists whenever gcd(a(m),a(n)) = a(gcd(m,n)).
The problem of the characterization of the family of all GCD-morphic sequences F, i.e., F such that GCD(F(m),F(n)) = F(GCD(m,n)), was posed by A. K. Kwasniewski (GCD-morphic Problem). Dziemianczuk and Bajguz (2008) showed that any GCD-morphic sequence is coded by a certain natural number-valued sequence. - Maciej Dziemianczuk, Jan 15 2009
This is the LCM-transform of the Fibonacci numbers (cf. Nowicki). - N. J. A. Sloane, Jan 02 2016

FORMULA
Let r=(1+sqrt(5))/2. For n>2, the primitive part of F(n)=(r^n-(-1/r)^n)/sqrt(5) is Phi_n(-r^2)/r^phi(n) where Phi_n is n-th cyclotomic polynomial and phi is Euler's totient function A000010.
a(n) = Product_{d|n} Fib(d)^mu(n/d), where mu = A008683 (Bliss, Fulan, Lovett, Sommars, eq. (7)). - Jonathan Sondow, Jun 11 2013
a(n) = lcm(Fib(1),Fib(2),...,Fib(n))/lcm(Fib(1),Fib(2),...,Fib(n-1)). - Thomas Ordowski, Aug 03 2015
a(n) = Product_{k=1..n} Fib(gcd(n,k))^(mu(n/gcd(n,k))/phi(n/gcd(n,k))) = Product_{k=1..n} Fib(n/gcd(n,k))^(mu(gcd(n,k))/phi(n/gcd(n,k))) where mu = A008683, phi = A000010. - Richard L. Ollerton, Nov 08 2021
