COMMENTS

Define B(n) = sum(k=0, infinity, k^n/(k!)^2), then there exists a complex linear relation: B(3) = B(2) + B(1); B(4) = 2*B(3); B(5) = 2*B(4) + B(2); B(6) = 5*B(4) + 3*B(2); B(7) = 7*B(5) + B(3); B(12) = B(11) + 11*B(10); ...

FORMULA

sum(k>=0, k^n/(k!)^2) = A000994(n)*BesI(0, 2) + A000995(n)*BesI(1, 2), using Bessel function values BesI(0, 2)=2.2795853023..., BesI(1, 2)=1.5906368546... and where A000994 and A000995 shift 2 places left under binomial transform: A000994={1, 0, 1, 1, 2, 5, 13, 36, 109, 359, 1266, 4731, ...} A000995={0, 1, 0, 1, 2, 4, 10, 29, 90, 295, 1030, 3838, ...}.

EXAMPLE

a(5) = floor(1^5/(1!)^2 + 2^5/(2!)^2 + 3^5/(3!)^2 + 4^5/(4!)^2 +...)
