%N A228729 Product of the positive squares less than or equal to n.
%C A228729 Squares of A214080, n > 0. Also, the n-th value of A001044 (The squared factorial numbers) repeated 2n+1 times, n > 0.
%C A228729 The first differences of a(n) are positive when n is a square (i.e., a(n+1) - a(n) > 0) and zero otherwise. This implies that the square characteristic (A010052) can be written in terms of a(n) as A010052(n) = signum(a(n+1) - a(n)), n > 1. Furthermore, the number of squares less than or equal to n is given by Sum_{i=1..n} sign(a(i+1) - a(i)), and the sum of the squares less than or equal to n is given by Sum_{i=2..n} i * sign(a(i+1) - a(i)).
%F A228729 a(n) = Product_{i=1..n} i^(1 - ceiling(frac(sqrt(i)))).
%F A228729 a(n) = A214080(n)^2, n > 0.
%F A228729 Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = BesselI(0, 2) + 2*BesselI(1, 2) - 1. - _Amiram Eldar_, Aug 15 2025
%e A228729 a(6) = 4 since there are two squares less than or equal to 6 (1 and 4) and their product is 1*4 = 4.
