%F A001421 a(n) = Integral_{x=0..1728} x^n*W(x), with W(x) =  W1(x) + W2(x) + W3(x), where
%F A001421   W1(x) = hypergeometric([1/6, 1/6, 1/6], [1/3, 2/3], x/1728)/(6*sqrt(Pi)*x^(5/6)*Gamma(5/6)^3),
%F A001421   W2(x) = - hypergeometric([1/2, 1/2, 1/2], [2/3, 4/3], x/1728)/(24*Pi^2*sqrt(x)), and
%F A001421   W3(x) = hypergeometric([5/6, 5/6, 5/6], [4/3, 5/3], x/1728)*Gamma(5/6)^3/(1536*Pi^(7/2)*x^(1/6)). This integral representation is unique as W(x) is the solution of the Hausdorff power moment problem on x = (0, 1728). Using only the definition of a(n), W(x) can be proven to be positive. W(x) is singular at x = 0, with singularity x^(-1/6), and for x > 0 is monotonically decreasing to zero at x = 1728. (End)
