FORMULA
G.f.: Sum_{k >= 1} tau(k)^3 * x^k/(1 - x^k)^2.
If p is prime, a(p) = 8 + p.
Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ c * n^2 / 2, where c = zeta(2)^4 * Product_{p prime} (1 + 4/p^2 + 1/p^4) = 31.237542262502... . - Amiram Eldar, Dec 22 2023
From Peter Bala, Jan 25 2024: (Start)
a(n) = Sum_{d|n, e|n} gcd(d, e) * tau(n/d) * tau(n/e) (the sum is a multiplicative function of n - see Tóth).
Multiplicative: a(p^k) = ( p^(k+2)*(p^2 + 4*p + 1) - p^3*(k + 2)^3 + p^2*(3*k^3 + 15*k^2 + 21*k + 5) - p*(3*k^3 + 12*k^2 + 12*k + 4) + (k + 1)^3 ) / (p - 1)^4. (End)
