 * For any positive integer n, define λ(n) as the sum of the primitive nth roots of unity.
 * It has values in {−1, 1} depending on the factorization of n into prime factors:
 *   λ(n) = +1 if n positive integer with an even number of prime factors.
 *   λ(n) = −1 if n positive integer with an odd number of prime factors.
