COMMENTS
Given a finite set S of positive integers greater than one, let G(S) be the simple labeled graph with vertex set S and edges between any two vertices that are not relatively prime. For example, G({6,14,15,35}) is a 4-cycle. A set S is said to be connected if G(S) is a connected graph.
a(n) depends only on prime signature of n (cf. A025487). - Antti Karttunen, Feb 17 2024
FORMULA
From Antti Karttunen, Feb 17 2024: (Start)
a(n) <= A069626(n).
It seems that a(n) >= A318670(n), for all n > 1.
(End)
EXAMPLE
The a(6)=4 sets are: {6}, {2,6}, {3,6}, {2,3,6}.
