I have not come across this function before (and I am a number
theorist!).  I am guessing on what it means:  applied to a set of
integers (?) or positive integers, it checks whether the gcd of any
two is also in the set?

One problem I see is that you would want it to be a global function,
rather than a member function of some class (which class?), which is
rather a negative for a specialised function.  I hope you do not mind
me calling it that since I have never needed such a function in around
40 years of number-theoretic computations!
