cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

A245497 a(n) = phi(n)^2/2, where phi(n) = A000010(n), the Euler totient function.

Comments

Values of a(n) < 3 are non-integers since phi(1) = phi(2) = 1 (odd). Since phi(n) is even for all n > 2, a(n) is a positive integer.
a(n) gives the sum of all the parts in the partitions of phi(n) with exactly two parts (see example).
a(n) is also the area of a square with diagonal phi(n).

Examples

			a(5) = 8; since phi(5)^2/2 = 4^2/2 = 8. The partitions of phi(5) = 4 into exactly two parts are: (3,1) and (2,2). The sum of all the parts in these partitions gives: 3+1+2+2 = 8.
a(7) = 18; since phi(7)^2/2 = 6^2/2 = 18. The partitions of phi(7) = 6 into exactly two parts are: (5,1), (4,2) and (3,3). The sum of all the parts in these partitions gives: 5+1+4+2+3+3 = 18.
