Examples
The circulant matrix for n = 5 is [1 2 3 4 5] [5 1 2 3 4] [4 5 1 2 3] [3 4 5 1 2] [2 3 4 5 1] The characteristic polynomial of this matrix is x^5 - 5*x^4 -100*x^3 - 625*x^2 - 1750*x - 1875. The coefficient of x^(n-5) is -1875, hence a(5) = 1875.

Formula
a(n+4) = n*(n+1)*(n+2)*(n+3)*(n+4)^5*(4*n+32)/(2*6!) for n>=1.
a(n) = (4*n^10-24*n^9-20*n^8+360*n^7-704*n^6+384*n^5)/(2*6!) for n>=5.
