Comments

If n has non-unitary prime divisors, then divide it by the square of the smallest of them and multiply by a single instance of the next larger prime.

This differs from related A097246 for the first time at n=16. For both sequences A097248 gives the eventual stable points reached when starting iterating from n.

Examples

			For n = 12 = 2*2*3, the smallest non-unitary prime divisor (and in this case the only one) is 2, thus we divide with 2^2 and multiply with the next larger prime 3, to get ((2^2 * 3)/(2^2))*3 = 3*3, thus a(12) = 9.
For n = 16 = 2^4, we divide two instances of 2 out and multiply by a single instance of 3 to get 2*2*3 = 12.

Scheme

(define (A277886 n) (if (zero? (A277885 n)) n (* (A000040 (+ 1 (A277885 n))) (/ n (expt (A249739 n) 2)))))

Formula

If A277885(n) = 0 [when n is squarefree], then a(n) = n, otherwise a(n) = A000040(1+A277885(n)) * (n/(A249739(n)^2)).
