COMMENT

Also called bigomega(n) or Omega(n).

Maximal number of terms in any factorization of n.

Number of prime powers (not including 1) that divide n.

Sum of exponents in prime-power factorization of n. [From Daniel Forgues (squid(AT)zensearch.com), Mar 29 2009]

FORMULA

n = Product (p_j^k_j) -> a(n) = Sum (k_j).

Dirichlet generating function: ppzeta(s)*zeta(s). Here ppzeta(s) = sum_{p prime} sum_{k=1}^{infinity} 1/(p^)k^s. Note that ppzeta(s) = sum_{p prime} 1/(p^s-1) and ppzeta(s) = sum_{k=1}^{infinity} primezeta(k*s). - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Sep 11 2005.

Totally additive with a(p) = 1.

a(n) = if n=1 then 0 else a(n/A020639(n)) + 1. - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Feb 25 2008

EXAMPLE

16=2^4, so a(16)=4; 18=2*3^2, so a(18)=3.
