cp's OEIS Frontend

This is a front-end for the Online Encyclopedia of Integer Sequences, made by Christian Perfect. The idea is to provide OEIS entries in non-ancient HTML, and then to think about how they're presented visually. The source code is on GitHub.

a(n) ~ 5^(5*n+1/2) / (4 * Pi^2 * n^2). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Mar 07 2014

a(n) = binomial(2*n,n)*binomial(3*n,n)*binomial(4*n,n)*binomial(5*n,n) = ( [x^n](1 + x)^(2*n) ) * ( [x^n](1 + x)^(3*n) ) * ( [x^n](1 + x)^(4*n) ) * ( [x^n](1 + x)^(5*n) ) = [x^n]( F(x)^(120*n) ), where F(x) = 1 + x + 353*x^2 + 318986*x^3 + 408941594*x^4 + 633438203535*x^5 + 1105336091531052*x^6 + ... appears to have integer coefficients.

a(m*p^k) == a(m*p^(k-1)) ( mod p^(3*k) ) for prime p >= 5 and positive integers m and k - apply Mestrovic, equation 39, p. 12.
a(n) = [(x*y*z*u)^n] (1 + x + y + z + u )^(5*n). (End)
