EXAMPLE
a(0) = 1, a(4) = 14: we have L(4,0) = 1, L(4,1) = 4, L(4,2) = 6, L(4,3) = 2, L(4,4) = 1. For r = 0 to 4, sigma {L(4,r)}= 1 + 4 + 6 + 2 + 1 = 14.
PROG
(PARI) tlcm(n, r) = {nt = 1; for (k = n-r+1, n, nt = lcm(nt, k); ); dt = 1; for (k = 1, r, dt = lcm(dt, k); ); return (nt/dt); }
a(n) = sum(r = 0, n , tlcm(n, r)); \\ Michel Marcus, Sep 14 2013
