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.

Compare g.f. to the Lambert series identity: Sum_{n>=1} lambda(n)*x^n/(1-x^n) = Sum_{n>=1} x^(n^2); Liouville's function lambda(n) = (-1)^k, where k is number of primes dividing n (counted with multiplicity).

Examples

			G.f.: A(x) = x + 12*x^4 + 985*x^9 + 470832*x^16 + 1311738121*x^25 +...
where A(x) = x/(1-2*x-x^2) + (-1)*2*x^2/(1-6*x^2+x^4) + (-1)*5*x^3/(1-14*x^3-x^6) + (+1)*12*x^4/(1-34*x^4+x^8) + (-1)*29*x^5/(1-82*x^5-x^10) + (+1)*70*x^6/(1-198*x^6+x^12) +...+ lambda(n)*Pell(n)*x^n/(1 - A002203(n)*x^n + (-1)^n*x^(2*n)) +...

Formula

G.f.: Sum_{n>=1} lambda(n)*Pell(n)*x^n/(1 - A002203(n)*x^n + (-1)^n*x^(2*n)), where lambda(n) = A008836(n), Pell(n) = A000129(n) and A002203 is the companion Pell numbers.
