COMMENTS

a(p*(n/p)) - (n/p) = (p-1)*a(n/p) holds for all prime divisors p of n, which can be seen by expanding the left hand side as p*(n/p) - A003958(p*(n/p)) - (n/p) = (p-1)*(n/p) - (p-1)*A003958(n/p) = (p-1)*((n/p) - A003958(n/p)) = (p-1)*a(n/p). This shows that this sequence gives a lower limit for arithmetic derivative (A003415) in the same way as A348507 gives an upper limit for it. - Antti Karttunen, Nov 07 2021

With n = Product_{i=1..k} p_i the prime factorization of n, if one constructs for each i a test with a probability of success equal to 1/p_i, and if the tests are independent, then a(n)/n is the probability that at least one of the k tests succeeds. - Luc Rousseau, Jan 14 2023

FORMULA

a(n) = n - A003958(n).

From Antti Karttunen, Nov 07 2021: (Start)

a(n) = A003415(n) - A348975(n).

For all n >= 1, a(n) <= A003415(n) <= A348507(n).

For n > 1, a(n) = a(A032742(n))*(A020639(n)-1) + A032742(n). [See the comment above and compare with Reinhard Zumkeller's May 09 2011 formula for A003415]
