Comments

A factorization of n is a finite nonempty multiset of positive integers greater than 1 with product n. An achiral tree-factorization of n is either (case 1) the number n itself or (case 2) a finite constant multiset of two or more achiral tree-factorizations, one of each factor in a factorization of n.

a(n) is also the number of ways to write n as a left-nested power-tower ((a^b)^c)^... of positive integers greater than one. For example, the a(64) = 6 ways are 64, 8^2, 4^3, 2^6, (2^3)^2, (2^2)^3.

a(n) depends only on the prime signature of n. - Andrew Howroyd, Nov 18 2018

Examples

			The a(1296) = 4 achiral tree-factorizations are 1296, (36*36), (6*6*6*6), ((6*6)*(6*6)).
