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.

Generalized harmonic numbers are defined as H(m,k) = Sum_{j=1..m} 1/j^k. Alternating generalized harmonic numbers are defined as H'(m,k) = Sum_{j=1..m} (-1)^(j+1)/j^k.
Sequence contains all geometric progressions of the form (p-1)*p^k for k > 0 and some primes p > 3. Note the factorization of initial terms of {a(n)} = {4*5, 6*7, 4*5^2, 10*11, 12*13, 16*17, 6*7^2, 18*19, 4*5^3, 22*23, 28*29, 30*31, 10*11^2, 36*37, 40*41, 42*43, 12*13^2, 6*7^3, 46*47, 4*5^4, 52*53, 58*59, 60*61, 66*67, 16*17^2, 70*71, 72*73, 78*79, 18*19^2, 82*83, ...}. The smallest term that does not fit this pattern is 11026 = ((149-1)/2) * 149.

Generalized harmonic numbers are defined as H(m,k) = Sum_{j=1..m} 1/j^k. Alternating generalized harmonic numbers are defined as H'(m,k) = Sum_{j=1..m} (-1)^(j+1)/j^k.
Note that {a(n)} contains the following geometric progressions: ((16843-1)/3)*16843^m found by Max Alekseyev, ((16843-1)/2)*16843^m found by Max Alekseyev, ((16843-1)*2/3)*16843^m, (16843-1)*16843^m, 20826*21647^m found by Max Alekseyev, ((2124679-1)/3)*2124679^m, ((2124679-1)/2)*2124679^m, ((2124679-1)*2/3)*2124679^m, (2124679-1)*2124679^m. Here {16843, 2124679} = A088164 are the only two currently known Wolstenholme Primes: primes p such that {2p-1} choose {p-1} == 1 mod p^4. See more details in Comments at A128672 and A125581.

Generalized harmonic numbers are defined as H(m,k) = Sum_{j=1..m}1/j^k. Alternating generalized harmonic numbers are defined as H'(m,k) = Sum_{j=1..m} (-1)^(j+1)/j^k.
Some apparent periodicity in {a(n)} (not without exceptions): a(n) = 20 for n = 2 + 4m, a(n) = 42 for n = 4 + 12m and 8 + 12m, a(n) = 76 for n = 9 + 18m, a(n) = 77 for n = 1 + 10m, a(n) = 104 for n = 7 + 12m, a(n) = 110 for n = 12m, a(n) = 136 for n = 25 + 32m, etc.
