Relatively prime sets and a Phi function for subsets of \(\{1, 2,\dots, n\}\)
Journal of integer sequences, Tome 13 (2010) no. 7
A nonempty subset $A$ of ${1, 2, \dots , n}$ is said to be relatively prime if $gcd(A) = 1$. Let $f(n)$ and $f_{k}(n)$ denote the number of relatively prime subsets and the number of relatively prime subsets of cardinality $k$ of ${1, 2, \dots , n}$, respectively. Let $\Phi (n)$ and $\Phi _{k}(n)$ denote the number of nonempty subsets and the number of subsets of cardinality $k$ of ${1, 2, \dots , n}$ such that $gcd(A)$ is relatively prime to $n$, respectively. In this paper, we obtain some properties of these functions.
