COMMENTS

Conjectures for o.g.f.s for this type of sequences appear in the PhD thesis by S. Plouffe. See A001552 for the reference. These conjectures are proved in a link given in A196837. [Wolfdieter Lang, Oct 15 2011]

FORMULA

From Wolfdieter Lang, Oct 15 2011 (Start)

E.g.f.: (1-exp(8*x))/(exp(-x)-1) = sum(exp(j*x),j=1..8) (trivial).

O.g.f.: 4*(2-9*x)*(1-27*x+288*x^2-1539*x^3+4299*x^4-5886*x^5+3044*x^6)/product(1-j*x,j=1..8). From the e.g.f. via Laplace transformation. See the proof in a link under A196837.
