Each term divides its successor, as in A006963, and by the corresponding superfactorial, A000178(n), as in A203469.
Abbreviate "Vandermonde" as V. The V permanent of a set S={s(1),s(2),...,s(n)} is a product of sums s(j)+s(k) in analogy to the V determinant as a product of differences s(k)-s(j). Let D(n) and P(n) denote the V determinant and V permanent of S, and E(n) the V determinant of the numbers s(1)^2, s(2)^2, ..., s(n)^2; then P(n) = E(n)/D(n). This is one of many divisibility properties associated with V determinants and permanents. Another is that if S consists of distinct positive integers, then D(n) divides D(n+1) and P(n) divides P(n+1).

Generalizing, suppose that f(x,y) is a function of two variables and S=(s(1),s(2),...s(n)). The phrase, "Vandermonde sequence using f(x,y) applied to S" means the sequence a(n) whose n-th term is the product f(s(j,k)) : 1<=j

If f(x,y) is a (bivariate) cyclotomic polynomial and S is a strictly increasing sequence of positive integers, then a(n) consists of integers, each of which divides its successor. Guide to sequences for which f(x,y) is x^2+xy+y^2 or x^2-xy+y^2 or x^2+y^2:

Formula

Partial products of A006963: a(n) = Product((2*i-1)!/i!, i=1..n). - Vladeta Jovovic, May 27 2004
G.f.: G(0)/(2*x) -1/x, where G(k)= 1 + 1/(1 - 1/(1 + 1/((2*k+1)!/(k+1)!)/x/G(k+1))); (continued fraction). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Jun 15 2013
a(n) ~ sqrt(A/Pi) * 2^(n^2 + n/2 - 7/24) * exp(-3*n^2/4 + n/2 - 1/24) * n^(n^2/2 - n/2 - 11/24), where A is the Glaisher-Kinkelin constant A074962. - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jan 26 2019
