Comments

Any positive integer greater than 1 can be written uniquely as a perfect power r(n)^k. We define a planted achiral (or generalized Bethe) tree b(n) for any positive integer greater than 1 by writing n as a perfect power r(d)^k and forming a tree with k branches all equal to b(d). Then a(n) is the number of nodes in b(n).

Examples

			The first nineteen planted achiral trees are:
o,
(o),
((o)), (oo),
(((o))), ((oo)),
((((o)))), (ooo), ((o)(o)), (((oo))),
(((((o))))), ((ooo)), (((o)(o))), ((((oo)))),
((((((o)))))), (oooo), (((ooo))), ((((o)(o)))), (((((oo))))).
