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.

A341601 One of the two successive approximations up to 2^n for 2-adic integer sqrt(-3/5). This is the 3 (mod 4) case.

a(n) is the unique number k in [1, 2^n] and congruent to 3 mod 4 such that 5*k^2 + 3 is divisible by 2^(n+1).

Examples

			The unique number k in [1, 4] and congruent to 3 modulo 4 such that 5*k^2 + 3 is divisible by 8 is 3, so a(2) = 3.
5*a(2)^2 + 3 = 48 which is divisible by 16, so a(3) = a(2) = 3.
5*a(3)^2 + 3 = 48 which is not divisible by 32, so a(4) = a(3) + 2^3 = 11.
5*a(4)^2 + 3 = 608 which is not divisible by 64, so a(5) = a(4) + 2^4 = 27.
5*a(5)^2 + 3 = 3648 which is not divisible by 128, so a(6) = a(5) + 2^5 = 59.

Formula

a(2) = 3; for n >= 3, a(n) = a(n-1) if 5*a(n-1)^2 + 3 is divisible by 2^(n+1), otherwise a(n-1) + 2^(n-1).
a(n) = 2^n - A341600(n).
a(n) = Sum_{i = 0..n-1} A341603(i)*2^i.
