Each term divides its successor, as in A006963, and by the corresponding superfactorial, A000178(n), as in A203469.

Abbreviate "Vandermonde" as V. The V permanent of a set S={s(1),s(2),...,s(n)} is a product of sums s(j)+s(k) in analogy to the V determinant as a product of differences s(k)-s(j). Let D(n) and P(n) denote the V determinant and V permanent of S, and E(n) the V determinant of the numbers s(1)^2, s(2)^2, ..., s(n)^2; then P(n) = E(n)/D(n). This is one of many divisibility properties associated with V determinants and permanents. Another is that if S consists of distinct positive integers, then D(n) divides D(n+1) and P(n) divides P(n+1).

Generalizing, suppose that f(x,y) is a function of two variables and S=(s(1),s(2),...s(n)). The phrase, "Vandermonde sequence using f(x,y) applied to S" means the sequence a(n) whose n-th term is the product f(s(j,k)) : 1<=j

If f(x,y) is a (bivariate) cyclotomic polynomial and S is a strictly increasing sequence of positive integers, then a(n) consists of integers, each of which divides its successor. Guide to sequences for which f(x,y) is x^2+xy+y^2 or x^2-xy+y^2 or x^2+y^2:
