COMMENTS
| The Hafner-Sarnak-McCurley constant.
Comment on numerics from R. J. Mathar, Apr 20 2011 (Start):
The definition s = product_p{1-[1- product_{n>=1} (1-1/p^n)]^2} may be binomially expanded to s = product_p sum_{n>=1} (2*A010815(n)-A002107(n))/p^n. The auxiliary sequence 2*A010815(n)-A002107(n) is 1, 0, -1, -2, -1, 0, 2, 2, 2, 2, -1, 0,... for n>=0.
The inverse Euler transformation of the auxiliary sequence generates sum_n (2*A010815(n)-A002107(n)) /p^n = product_n (1-1/p^n)^gamma(n) with gamma(n) = 0, -1, -2 ,-1, -2, 0, -2, -1, 0, -2, 0, -1,... for n>=1. This yields s = product_(n>=1) zeta(n)^gamma(n) where zeta(n) are the values of the Riemann zeta function.
