COMMENTS

Definition (2): Equivalently, number of different output sequences from an n-stage pure cycling shift register when 2 sequences are considered the same if one is the complement of the other.

Definition (3): Also number of different output sequences from an n-stage pure cycling shift register constrained so contents have even weight.

Definition (4): Also number of output sequences from (n-1)-stage shift register which feeds back the mod 2 sum of the contents of the register.

The equivalence of definitions (1) and (2) follows at once from the definitions.

If u is an output sequence of type (2) then its derivative is of type (3) - so (2) and (3) count the same things.

If we have a shift register of type (4), append a new cell which contains the mod 2 sum of the contents to get a shift register of type (3). So (3) and (4) count the same things.

If n is even, a(n) = A000116(n/2). If 2^(n+1)-1 is prime, then a(n) = A128976(n+1), the number of cycles in the digraph of the Lucas-Lehmer operator LL(x)=x^2-2 acting on Z/(2^(n+1)-1). - M. F. Hasler, May 19 2007

FORMULA

Sum_{ d divides n } (phi(2d)*2^(n/d))/(2n) for n>0. - Michael Somos, Oct 20 1999

EXAMPLE

G.f. = 1 + x + 2*x^2 + 2*x^3 + 4*x^4 + 4*x^5 + 8*x^6 + 10*x^7 + 20*x^8 + ...

MAPLE

with(numtheory): A000013 := proc(n) local s, d; if n = 0 then RETURN(1) else s := 0; for d in divisors(n) do s := s+(phi(2*d)*2^(n/d))/(2*n); od; RETURN(s); fi; end;

MATHEMATICA

a[n_] := Fold[ #1 + EulerPhi[2#2]2^(n/#2)/(2n) &, 0, Divisors[n]]

a[ n_] := If[ n < 1, Boole[n == 0], DivisorSum[ n, EulerPhi[2 #] 2^(n/#) &] / (2 n)]; (* Michael Somos, Dec 19 2014 *)

PROG

(PARI) {a(n) = if( n<1, n==0, sumdiv(n, k, eulerphi(2*k) * 2^(n/k)) / (2*n))}; /* Michael Somos, Oct 20 1999 */

(Haskell)

a000013 n = sum (zipWith (*)

   (map (a000010 . (* 2)) ds) (map (2 ^) $ reverse ds)) `div` (2 * n)
