Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..10000
Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (9,-36,84,-126,126,-84,36,-9,1).
FORMULA
G.f.: 256*x*(1+x)*(x^6 + 246*x^5 + 4047*x^4 + 11572*x^3 + 4047*x^2 + 246*x + 1) / (1-x)^9. - R. J. Mathar, May 01 2015
From Amiram Eldar, Oct 11 2020: (Start)
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = Pi^8/2419200.
Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = 127*Pi^8/309657600. (End)
