A222084 Number of the least divisors of n whose LCM is equal to n. 7

%N Number of the least divisors of n whose LCM is equal to n.

%C If we write n as the product of its prime factors, n = p1^a1*p2^a2*p3^a3*...*pr^ar, then tau#(n) gives the number of divisors from 1 to max(p1^a1, p2^a2, p3^a3, ..., pr^ar).

%C In general tau#(n) <= tau(n).

%C Also, tau#(n) = tau(n) is A000961, tau#(n) < tau(n) is A024619.

%C For any prime number p tau(p) = tau#(p) = 2.

%C tau#(n) = 3 only for semiprimes (A001358).

%H Paolo P. Lava, <a href="/A222084/b222084.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..1000</a>

%e For n=40, the divisors are (1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 20, 40), so tau(40)=8.

%e lcm(1, 2, 4, 5, 8) = 40, but lcm(1, 2, 4, 5) = 20 < 40, so tau#(40)=5.
