Square-free Integer - Squarefree Core

Squarefree Core

The multiplicative function is defined to map positive integers n to t-free numbers by reducing the exponents in the prime power representation modulo t:

The value set of, in particular, are the square-free integers. Their Dirichlet generating functions are

$\sum_{n\ge 1}\frac{\mathrm{core}_t(n)}{n^s} = \frac{\zeta(ts)\zeta(s-1)}{\zeta(ts-t)}$ .

OEIS representatives are A007913 (t=2), A050985 (t=3) and A053165 (t=4).

Famous quotes containing the word core:

“For books are more than books, they are the life
The very heart and core of ages past,
The reason why men lived and worked and died,
The essence and quintessence of their lives.”
—Amy Lowell (1874–1925)
