COMMENTS
| Also determinant of n X n matrix with m(i,j) = i^2 if i=j otherwise 1. - Robert G. Wilson v (rgwv(AT)rgwv.com), Jan 28 2002
Partial products of positive values of A005563. - Jonathan Vos Post (jvospost3(AT)gmail.com), Oct 21 2008
This sequence has been shown to contain infinitely many squares. From the Hong and Liu abstract: Recently Cilleruelo proved that the product Product[k=1..n](k^2 + 1) is a square only for n = 3 which confirms a conjecture of Amdeberhan, Medina and Moll. In this paper, we show that the sequence Product[k=2..n](k^2 - 1)} contains infinitely many squares. Furthermore, we determine all squares in this sequence. We also give a formula for the p-adic valuation of the terms in this sequence. - Jonathan Vos Post (jvospost3(AT)gmail.com), Oct 21 2008
