COMMENTS
| 13^a(n) is highest power of 13 dividing (13^n)!.
Let A be the Hessenberg matrix of the order n, defined by: A[1,j]=1,A[i,i]:=13, (i>1), A[i,i-1]=-1, and A[i,j]=0 otherwise. Then, for n>=1, a(n)=det(A). [From Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Feb 21 2010]

FORMULA
| a(n)= sum(13^k, k=0..n-1) = (13^n-1)/12.
G.f.: x/((1-13*x)*(1-x))= (1/(1-13*x) - 1/(1-x))/12.
For analogues with primes 2, 3, 5, 7 and 11 see A000225, A003462, A003463, A023000 and A016123 respectively.
a(1)=1, a(n)=13*a(n-1)+1. [From Vincenzo Librandi, Feb 05 2011]
