Formula

G.f.: Sum_{k>=1} x^A005117(k)/(1 + x^A005117(k)).

L.g.f.: log(Product_{k>=1} (1 + mu(k)^2*x^k)^(1/k)) = Sum_{n>=1} a(n)*x^n/n.

a(n) = Sum_{d|n} (-1)^(n/d+1)*A008966(d).

If n is odd, a(n) = A034444(n).

Multiplicative with a(2) = 0, a(2^e) = -2 for e>1, and a(p^e) = 2 for p>2 and e>=1. - Amiram Eldar, Nov 19 2022
