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.

A163223 Number of reduced words of length n in Coxeter group on 40 generators S_i with relations (S_i)^2 = (S_i S_j)^4 = I.

Formula

G.f.: (t^4 + 2*t^3 + 2*t^2 + 2*t + 1)/(741*t^4 - 38*t^3 - 38*t^2 - 38*t + 1).
a(n) = 38*a(n-1)+38*a(n-2)+38*a(n-3)-741*a(n-4). - Wesley Ivan Hurt, May 06 2021
