FORMULA

Multiplicative with a(p^e) = p^(4e). - David W. Wilson (davidwwilson(AT)comcast.net), Aug 01, 2001.

G.f.: x*(1+11*x+11*x^2+x^3)/(1-x)^5. More generally, g.f. for n^m is Euler(m, x)/(1-x)^(m+1), where Euler(m, x) is Eulerian polynomial of degree m (cf. A008292).

Dirichlet generating function: zeta(s-4). - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Sep 11 2005.

E.g.f.: (x+7x^2+6x^3+x^4)*e^x. More generally, the general form for the e.g.f. for n^m is phi_m(x)*e^x, where phi_m is the exponential polynomial of order n. - Franklin T. Adams-Watters, Sep 11 2005.

a(n)=sum(sum(sum(n, j=1..n),k=1..n),m=1..n), n>=0 . - Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), May 09 2007

a(n) = {least common multiple of n and (n-1)^3}-(n-1)^3. E.g.: {least common multiple of 1 and (1-1)^3}-(1-1)^3 = 0, {least common multiple of 2 and (2-1)^3}-(2-1)^3 = 1, {least common multiple of 3 and (3-1)^3}-(3-1)^3 = 16, {least common multiple of 4 and (4-1)^3}-(4-1)^3 = 81, ... - Mats Granvik (mgranvik(AT)abo.fi), Sep 24 2007

a(n) = C(n+3,4) + 11 C(n+2,4) + 11 C(n+1,4) + C(n,4)

a(n) = n*A177342(n) - sum [i = 1..n-1] A177342(i) - (n-1), with n>0 . For n=5, a(5) = 5*A177342(5) - sum [i=1..4] A177342(i) - 4 = 5*149-(75+31+9+1)-4 = 625 [From Bruno Berselli (berselli.bruno(AT)yahoo.it), May 07 2010]
