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.

Numbers n such that phi(4n) = phi(3n). - Benoit Cloitre, Aug 06 2003
Or, numbers relatively prime to 2 and 3, or coprime to 6, or having only prime factors >= 5; also known as 5-rough numbers. (Edited by M. F. Hasler, Nov 01 2014: merged with comments from Zak Seidov, Apr 26 2007 and Michael B. Porter, Oct 09 2009)
Apart from initial term(s), dimension of the space of weight 2n cuspidal newforms for Gamma_0( 38 ).
Numbers k such that k mod 2 = 1 and (k+1) mod 3 <> 1. - Klaus Brockhaus, Jun 15 2004
Also numbers n such that the sum of the squares of the first n integers is divisible by n, or A000330(n) = n*(n+1)*(2*n+1)/6 is divisible by n. - Alexander Adamchuk, Jan 04 2007
Numbers n such that the sum of squares of n consecutive integers is divisible by n, because A000330(m+n) - A000330(m) = n*(n+1)*(2*n+1)/6 + n*(m^2+n*m+m) is divisible by n independent of m. - Kaupo Palo, Dec 10 2016
A126759(a(n)) = n + 1. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jun 16 2008
Terms of this sequence (starting from the second term) are equal to the result of the expression sqrt(4!*(k+1) + 1) - but only when this expression yields integral values (that is when the parameter k takes values, which are terms of A144065). - Alexander R. Povolotsky, Sep 09 2008
For n > 1: a(n) is prime if and only if A075743(n-2) = 1; a(2*n-1) = A016969(n-1), a(2*n) = A016921(n-1). - Reinhard Zumkeller, Oct 02 2008
A156543 is a subsequence. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Feb 10 2009
Numbers n such that ChebyshevT(x, x/2) is not an integer (is integer/2). - Artur Jasinski, Feb 13 2010
If 12*k + 1 is a perfect square (k = 0, 2, 4, 10, 14, 24, 30, 44, ... = A152749) then the square root of 12*k + 1 = a(n). - Gary Detlefs, Feb 22 2010
A089128(a(n)) = 1. Complement of A047229(n+1) for n >= 1. See A164576 for corresponding values A175485(a(n)). - Jaroslav Krizek, May 28 2010
Cf. property described by Gary Detlefs in A113801 and in Comment: more generally, these numbers are of the form (2*h*n+(h-4)*(-1)^n-h)/4 (with h, n natural numbers), therefore ((2*h*n+(h-4)*(-1)^n-h)/4)^2-1 == 0 (mod h); in this case, a(n)^2 - 1 == 0 (mod 6). Also a(n)^2 - 1 == 0 (mod 12). - Bruno Berselli, Nov 05 2010 - Nov 17 2010
Numbers n such that ( Sum_{k = 1..n} k^14 ) mod n = 0. (Conjectured) - Gary Detlefs, Dec 27 2011
From Peter Bala, May 02 2018: (Start)
The above conjecture is true. Apply Ireland and Rosen, Proposition 15.2.2. with m = 14 to obtain the congruence 6*( Sum_{k = 1..n} k^14 )/n = 7 (mod n), true for all n >= 1. Suppose n is coprime to 6, then 6 is a unit in Z/nZ, and it follows from the congruence that ( Sum_{k = 1..n} k^14 )/n is an integer. On the other hand, if either 2 divides n or 3 divides n then the congruence shows that ( Sum_{k = 1..n} k^14 )/n cannot be integral. (End)
A126759(a(n)) = n and A126759(m) < n for m < a(n). - Reinhard Zumkeller, May 23 2013
(a(n-1)^2 - 1)/24 = A001318(n), the generalized pentagonal numbers. - Richard R. Forberg, May 30 2013
Numbers k for which A001580(k) is divisible by 3. - Bruno Berselli, Jun 18 2014
Numbers n such that sigma(n) + sigma(2n) = sigma(3n). - Jahangeer Kholdi and Farideh Firoozbakht, Aug 15 2014
a(n) are values of k such that Sum_{m = 1..k-1} m*(k-m)/k is an integer. Sums for those k are given by A062717. Also see Detlefs formula below based on A062717. - Richard R. Forberg, Feb 16 2015
a(n) are exactly those positive integers m such that the sequence b(n) = n*(n + m)*(n + 2*m)/6 is integral, and also such that the sequence c(n) = n*(n + m)*(n + 2*m)*(n + 3*m)/24 is integral. Cf. A007775. - Peter Bala, Nov 13 2015
Along with 2, these are the numbers k such that the k-th Fibonacci number is coprime to every Lucas number. - Clark Kimberling, Jun 21 2016
This sequence is the Engel expansion of 1F2(1; 5/6, 7/6; 1/36) + 1F2(1; 7/6, 11/6; 1/36)/5. - Benedict W. J. Irwin, Dec 16 2016
The sequence a(n), n >= 4 is generated by the successor of the pair of polygonal numbers {P_s(4) + 1, P_(2*s - 1)(3) + 1}, s >= 3. - Ralf Steiner, May 25 2018
The asymptotic density of this sequence is 1/3. - Amiram Eldar, Oct 18 2020
Also, the only vertices in the odd Collatz tree A088975 that are branch values to other odd nodes t == 1 (mod 2) of A005408. - Heinz Ebert, Apr 14 2021
From Flávio V. Fernandes, Aug 01 2021: (Start)
For any two terms j and k, the product j*k is also a term (the same property as p^n and smooth numbers).
From a(2) to a(phi(A033845(n))), or a((A033845(n))/3), the terms are the totatives of the A033845(n) itself. (End)
Also orders n for which cyclic and semicyclic diagonal Latin squares exist (see A123565 and A342990). - Eduard I. Vatutin, Jul 11 2023
If k is in the sequence, then k*2^m + 3 is also in the sequence, for all m > 0. - Jules Beauchamp, Aug 29 2024

Complete coach system for (a composite) b = 2*n + 1 = 33: Sigma(33) ={[1; 5], [5, 7, 13; 2, 1, 2]} (the first two rows are here 1 and 5, 7, 13), a_{up}(33) = a(15) = 15. But 15 is not in the reduced residue system modulo 33, so the maximal (odd) a number is 13. For the prime b = 31, a_{up}(31) = a(14) = 15 appears as maximum of the first rows. - _Wolfdieter Lang_, Feb 19 2020
