FORMULA

From Ridouane Oudra, Jun 02 2024: (Start)

a(n) = (-1)^A066829(n);

a(n) = (-1)^A063647(n);

a(n) = A101455(A048691(n));

a(n) = sin(tau(n^2)*Pi/2). (End)

COMMENTS

Coons and Borwein: "We give a new proof of Fatou's theorem: if an algebraic function has a power series expansion with bounded integer coefficients, then it must be a rational function. This result is applied to show that for any nontrivial non-trivial completely multiplicative function from N to {-1,1}, the series sum_{n=1..infinity} f(n)z^n is transcendental over {Z}[z]; in particular, sum_{n=1..infinity} lambda(n)z^n is transcendental, where lambda is Liouville's function. The transcendence of sum_{n=1..infinity} mu(n)z^n is also proved." - Jonathan Vos Post, Jun 11 2008
