Given n points, sort them into the most-square rectangular point lattice possible. Now sort the points into square point lattices of dimension equal to the lesser dimension of the earlier rectangle. a(n) is the number of points left over. a(n) is trivially 0 for prime numbers n (the most-square and only rectangular point lattice on a prime number of points is a linear point lattice). a(n) != 0 iff n is a member of A080363.

			a(6)=1 because the least divisor of 6 greater than sqrt(6) is 3, the greater divisor of 6 less than sqrt(6) is 2 and 3 mod 2 = 1

When n squares are arranged in a rectangular grid which is as nearly square as possible, a(n) represents the count of rectangles in the grid. The whole grid itself must be a rectangle too.

			For n=10, the grid as nearly square as possible is 2*5. Thus a(10)=3*15=45 is the number of rectangles in this grid.

Number of ways to arrange n identical objects in a rectangle, modulo rotation.
Number of unordered solutions of x*y = n. - Colin Mallows, Jan 26 2002
Number of ways to write n-1 as n-1 = x*y + x + y, 0 <= x <= y <= n. - Benoit Cloitre, Jun 23 2002
Also number of values for x where x+2n and x-2n are both squares (e.g., if n=9, then 18+18 and 18-18 are both squares, as are 82+18 and 82-18 so a(9)=2); this is because a(n) is the number of solutions to n=k(k+r) in which case if x=r^2+2n then x+2n=(r+2k)^2 and x-2n=r^2 (cf. A061408). - Henry Bottomley, May 03 2001
Also number of sums of sequences of consecutive odd numbers or consecutive even numbers including sequences of length 1 (e.g., 12 = 5+7 or 2+4+6 or 12 so a(12)=3). - Naohiro Nomoto, Feb 26 2002
Number of partitions whose consecutive parts differ by exactly two.
a(n) depends only on prime signature of n (cf. A025487). So a(24) = a(375) since 24=2^3*3 and 375=3*5^3 both have prime signature (3,1). - Christian G. Bower, Jun 06 2005
Also number of partitions of n such that if k is the largest part, then each of the parts 1,2,...,k-1 occurs exactly twice. Example: a(12)=3 because we have [3,3,2,2,1,1],[2,2,2,2,2,1,1] and [1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]. - Emeric Deutsch, Mar 07 2006
a(n) is also the number of nonnegative integer solutions of the Diophantine equation 4*x^2 - y^2 = 16*n. For example, a(24)=4 because there are 4 solutions: (x,y) = (10,4), (11,10), (14,20), (25,46). - N-E. Fahssi, Feb 27 2008
a(n) is the number of even divisors of 2*n that are <= sqrt(2*n). - Joerg Arndt, Mar 04 2010
First differences of A094820. - John W. Layman, Feb 21 2012
a(n) = #{k: A027750(n,k) <= A000196(n)}; a(A008578(n)) = 1; a(A002808(n)) > 1. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Dec 26 2012
Row lengths of the tables in A161906 and A161908. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Mar 08 2013
Number of positive integers in the sequence defined by x_0 = n, x_(k+1) = (k+1)*(x_k-2)/(k+2) or equivalently by x_k = n/(k+1) - k. - Luc Rousseau, Mar 03 2018
Expanding the first comment: Number of rectangles with area n and integer side lengths, modulo rotation. Also number of 2D grids of n congruent squares, in a rectangle, modulo rotation (cf. A000005 for rectangles instead of squares; cf. A034836 for the 3D case). - Manfred Boergens, Jun 08 2021
Number of divisors of n that have an even number of prime divisors (counted with multiplicity), or in other words, number of terms of A028260 that divide n. - Antti Karttunen, Apr 17 2022

			a(4) = 2 since 4 = 2 * 2 = 4 * 1. Also A034178(4*4) = 2 since 16 = 4^2 - 0^2 = 5^2 - 3^2. - _Michael Somos_, May 11 2011

Also: Largest divisor of n which is less than sqrt(n).
If n is not a square, then a(n) = A033676(n), else a(n) is strictly smaller than A033676(n) = sqrt(n) (except for a(1) = 1).  - M. F. Hasler, Sep 20 2011
Record values occur for n = k * (k+1), for which a(n) = k. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, May 01 2015
If we define a divisor d|n to be strictly inferior if d < n/d, then strictly inferior divisors are counted by A056924 and listed by A341674. This sequence gives the greatest strictly inferior divisor, which may differ from the lower central divisor A033676. Central divisors are listed by A207375. - Gus Wiseman, Feb 28 2021

Sometimes (Weisstein) called the "usual numbers" as opposed to what Greene and Knuth define as "unusual numbers" (A063538), which turn out to not be so unusual after all (Greene and Knuth 1990, Finch 2001). - Jonathan Vos Post, Sep 11 2010
If we define a divisor d|n to be superior if d >= n/d, then superior divisors are counted by A038548 and listed by A161908. This sequence lists numbers without a superior prime divisor, which is unique (A341676) when it exists. For example, the set of superior prime divisors of each n starts: {},{2},{3},{2},{5},{3},{7},{},{3},{5},{11},{},{13},{7}. The positions of empty sets give the sequence. - Gus Wiseman, Feb 24 2021
As Jonathan Vos Post's comment suggests, the sqrt(n-1)-smooth numbers are asymptotically less dense than their "unusual" complement. This is part of a larger picture of "typical" relative sizes of a number's prime factors: see, for example, the medians of the n-th smallest prime factors of the positive integers in A281889. - Peter Munn, Mar 03 2021

From Hugo Pfoertner, Apr 02 - Apr 12 2020: (Start)
For small n (e.g. n < 10000) a(n) can apparently be approximated by 3.7642*n.
Asymptotically, the number of sqrt(n)-smooth numbers < x is known to be (1-log(2))*x + O(x/log(x)), see Ramaswami (1949).
n = (1-log(2))*a(n) - 0.59436*a(n)/log(a(n)) is a fitted approximation. (End)
However, it is known that this fit only leads to an increase of accuracy in the range up to a(10^11). The improvement in accuracy suggested by the plot of the relative error for even larger n does not occur. For larger n the behavior of the error term O(x/log(x)) is not known. - Hugo Pfoertner, Nov 12 2023

Similar to A027709, which is minimal perimeter of polyomino of n cells, or equivalently, minimal perimeter of rectangle of area at least n and with integer sides. Present sequence is minimal semiperimeter of rectangle with area exactly n and with integer sides. - Winston C. Yang (winston(AT)cs.wisc.edu), Feb 03 2002
Semiperimeter b+d, d >= b, of squarest (smallest d-b) integral rectangle with area bd = n. That is, b = largest divisor of n <= sqrt(n), d = smallest divisor of n >= sqrt(n). a(n) = n+1 iff n is noncomposite (1 or prime). - Daniel Forgues, Nov 22 2009
From Juhani Heino, Feb 05 2019: (Start)
Basis for any thickness "frames" around the minimal area. Perimeter can be thought as the 0-thick frame, it is obviously 2a(n). Thickness 1 is achieved by laying unit tiles around the area, there are 2(a(n)+2) of them. Thickness 2 comes from the second such layer, now there are 4(a(n)+4) and so on. They all depend only on a(n), so they share this structure:
Every n > 1 is included. (For different thicknesses, every integer that can be derived from these with the respective formula. So, the perimeter has every even n > 2.)
For each square n > 1, a(n) = a(n-1).
a(1), a(2) and a(6) are the only unique values - the others appear multiple times.
(End)
Gives a discrete Uncertainty Principle. A complex function on an abelian group of order n and its Discrete Fourier Transform must have at least a(n) nonzero entries between them. This bound is achieved by the indicator function on a subgroup of size closest to sqrt(n). - Oscar Cunningham, Oct 10 2021
Also two times the median divisor of n, where the median of a multiset is either the middle part (for odd length), or the average of the two middle parts (for even length). The version for mean instead of median is A057020/A057021. Other doubled medians of multisets are: A360005 (prime indices), A360457 (distinct prime indices), A360458 (distinct prime factors), A360459 (prime factors), A360460 (prime multiplicities), A360555 (0-prepended differences). - Gus Wiseman, Mar 18 2023

			Since 15 = 1*15 = 3*5 and the 3*5 rectangle gives smallest semiperimeter 8, we have a(15)=8.

If n is a square then row n lists only the square root of n because the squares (A000290) have only one central divisor.
If n is not a square then row n lists the pair (j, k) of divisors of n, nearest to the square root of n, such that j*k = n.
Conjecture 1: It appears that the n-th record in this sequence is the last member of row A008578(n).
Column 1 gives A033676. Right border gives A033677. - Omar E. Pol, Feb 26 2019
The conjecture 1 follows from Bertrand's Postulate. - Charles R Greathouse IV, Feb 11 2022
Row products give A097448. - Omar E. Pol, Feb 17 2022
