The average of the first n (n > 0) pentagonal numbers is the n-th triangular number. - Mario Catalani (mario.catalani(AT)unito.it), Apr 10 2003
a(n) is the sum of n integers starting from n, i.e., 1, 2 + 3, 3 + 4 + 5, 4 + 5 + 6 + 7, etc. - Jon Perry, Jan 15 2004
Partial sums of 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, ... (1 mod 3), a(2k) = k(6k-1), a(2k-1) = (2k-1)(3k-2). - Jon Perry, Sep 10 2004
Starting with offset 1 = binomial transform of [1, 4, 3, 0, 0, 0, ...]. Also, A004736 * [1, 3, 3, 3, ...]. - Gary W. Adamson, Oct 25 2007
If Y is a 3-subset of an n-set X then, for n >= 4, a(n-3) is the number of 4-subsets of X having at least two elements in common with Y. - Milan Janjic, Nov 23 2007
Solutions to the duplication formula 2*a(n) = a(k) are given by the index pairs (n, k) = (5,7), (5577, 7887), (6435661, 9101399), etc. The indices are integer solutions to the pair of equations 2(6n-1)^2 = 1 + y^2, k = (1+y)/6, so these n can be generated from the subset of numbers [1+A001653(i)]/6, any i, where these are integers, confined to the cases where the associated k=[1+A002315(i)]/6 are also integers. - R. J. Mathar, Feb 01 2008
a(n) is a binomial coefficient C(n,4) (A000332) if and only if n is a generalized pentagonal number (A001318). Also see A145920. - Matthew Vandermast, Oct 28 2008
Even octagonal numbers divided by 8. - Omar E. Pol, Aug 18 2011
Sequence found by reading the line from 0, in the direction 0, 5, ... and the line from 1, in the direction 1, 12, ..., in the square spiral whose vertices are the generalized pentagonal numbers A001318. - Omar E. Pol, Sep 08 2011
The hyper-Wiener index of the star-tree with n edges (see A196060, example). - Emeric Deutsch, Sep 30 2011
More generally the n-th k-gonal number is equal to n + (k-2)*A000217(n-1), n >= 1, k >= 3. In this case k = 5. - Omar E. Pol, Apr 06 2013
Note that both Euler's pentagonal theorem for the partition numbers and Euler's pentagonal theorem for the sum of divisors refer more exactly to the generalized pentagonal numbers, not this sequence. For more information see A001318, A175003, A238442. - Omar E. Pol, Mar 01 2014
The Fuss-Catalan numbers are Cat(d,k)= [1/(k*(d-1)+1)]*binomial(k*d,k) and enumerate the number of (d+1)-gon partitions of a (k*(d-1)+2)-gon (cf. Schuetz and Whieldon link). a(n)= Cat(n,3), so enumerates the number of (n+1)-gon partitions of a (3*(n-1)+2)-gon. Analogous sequences are A100157 (k=4) and A234043 (k=5). - Tom Copeland, Oct 05 2014
Binomial transform of (0, 1, 3, 0, 0, 0, ...) (A169585 with offset 1) and second partial sum of (0, 1, 3, 3, 3, ...). - Gary W. Adamson, Oct 05 2015
For n > 0, a(n) is the number of compositions of n+8 into n parts avoiding parts 2 and 3. - Milan Janjic, Jan 07 2016
a(n) is also the number of edges in the Mycielskian of the complete graph K[n]. Indeed, K[n] has n vertices and n(n-1)/2 edges. Then its Mycielskian has n + 3n(n-1)/2 = n(3n-1)/2. See p. 205 of the West reference. - Emeric Deutsch, Nov 04 2016
Sum of the numbers from n to 2n-1. - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Dec 03 2016
Also the number of maximal cliques in the n-Andrásfai graph. - Eric W. Weisstein, Dec 01 2017
Coefficients in the hypergeometric series identity 1 - 5*(x - 1)/(2*x + 1) + 12*(x - 1)*(x - 2)/((2*x + 1)*(2*x + 2)) - 22*(x - 1)*(x - 2)*(x - 3)/((2*x + 1)*(2*x + 2)*(2*x + 3)) + ... = 0, valid for Re(x) > 1. Cf. A002412 and A002418. Column 2 of A103450. - Peter Bala, Mar 14 2019
A generalization of the Comment dated Apr 10 2003 follows. (k-3)*A000292(n-2) plus the average of the first n (2k-1)-gonal numbers is the n-th k-gonal number. - Charlie Marion, Nov 01 2020
a(n+1) is the number of Dyck paths of size (3,3n+1); i.e., the number of NE lattice paths from (0,0) to (3,3n+1) which stay above the line connecting these points. - Harry Richman, Jul 13 2021
a(n) is the largest sum of n positive integers x_1, ..., x_n such that x_i | x_(i+1)+1 for each 1 <= i <= n, where x_(n+1) = x_1. - Yifan Xie, Feb 21 2025
