COMMENTS
Also number of primitive Lucas strings of length n [Ashrafi et al.] - N. J. A. Sloane, Nov 19 2014
The preceding comment is true for all n except n=2, as there are 2 primitive Lucas strings of length 2. The sequence of the number of primitive Lucas strings is the Möbius transform of the Lucas numbers A000032. - Pontus von Brömssen, Jan 24 2019

FORMULA
If b(n) is the n-th term of A001350, then a(n) = Sum_{d|n} mu(d)b(n/d).
a(n) = n * A060280(n).
G.f.: Sum_{k>=1} mu(k) * x^k * (1 + x^(2*k)) / ((1 - x^(2*k)) * (1 - x^k - x^(2*k))). - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Feb 06 2020
