Given $\,m=\prod_k {p_k}^{\alpha_k}\,$ and the function $\,g(m)=\sum_k \alpha_k(p_k-1)^2$, find all solutions of the equation $\,g(2n)=n$

Let's consider the unique decomposition of a natural number $\,m\,$ into its prime factors: $$\prod_k {p_k}^{\alpha_k}$$ Then, let's define the following arithmetic function (completely additive) $\,g:...
