COMMENTS

Apart from initial term(s), dimension of the space of weight 2n cusp forms for Gamma_0( 14 ).

A000466(n), A008586(n) and A053755(n) are Pythagorean triples. - Zak Seidov, Jan 16 2007

If X is an n-set and Y and Z disjoint 2-subsets of X then a(n-3) is equal to the number of 3-subests of X intersecting both Y and Z. - Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Aug 26 2007

Number of n permutations (n>=1) of 5 objects u, v, z, x, y with repetition allowed, containing n-1 u's. Example: if n=1 then n-1 =zero (0) u, a(1)=4 because we have v, z, x, y. If n=2 then n-1= one (1) u, a(2)=8 because we have vu, zu, xu, yu, uv, uz, ux, uy. A038231 formatted as a triangular array:diagonal :4,8,12,16,20,24,28,32... [From Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), Aug 06 2008]

For n > 0: numbers having more even than odd divisors: A048272(a(n)) < 0. [Reinhard Zumkeller, Jan 21 2012]
