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.

A147655 a(n) is the coefficient of x^n in the polynomial given by Product_{k>=1} (1 + prime(k)*x^k).

Sum of all squarefree numbers whose prime indices sum to n. A prime index of n is a number m such that prime(m) divides n. The multiset of prime indices of n is row n of A112798. - Gus Wiseman, May 09 2019

Examples

			Form a product from the primes: (1 + 2*x) * (1 + 3*x^2) * (1 + 5*x^3) * ...* (1 + prime(n)*x^n) * ... Multiplying out gives 1 + 2*x + 3*x^2 + 11*x^3 + ..., so the sequence begins 1, 2, 3, 11, ....
From _Petros Hadjicostas_, Apr 10 2020: (Start)
Let f(m) = prime(m). Using the strict partitions of n (see A000009), we get:
a(1) = f(1) = 2,
a(2) = f(2) = 3,
a(3) = f(3) + f(1)*f(2) = 5 + 2*3 = 11,
a(4) = f(4) + f(1)*f(3) = 7 + 2*5 = 17,
a(5) = f(5) + f(1)*f(4) + f(2)*f(3) = 11 + 2*7 + 3*5 = 40,
a(6) = f(6) + f(1)*f(5) + f(2)*f(4) + f(1)*f(2)*f(3) = 13 + 2*11 + 3*7 + 2*3*5 = 86,
a(7) = f(7) + f(1)*f(6) + f(2)*f(5) + f(3)*f(4) + f(1)*f(2)*f(4) = 17 + 2*13 + 3*11 + 5*7 + 2*3*7 = 153. (End)

Formula

a(n) = [x^n] Product_{k>=1} 1+prime(k)*x^k. - Alois P. Heinz, Sep 05 2014
a(n) = Sum_{(b_1,...,b_n)} f(1)^b_1 * f(2)^b_2 * ... * f(n)^b_n, where f(m) = prime(m), and the sum is taken over all lists (b_1,...,b_n) with b_j in {0,1} and Sum_{j=1..n} j*b_j = n. - Petros Hadjicostas, Apr 10 2020
