A099193 Figurate numbers based on the 7-dimensional regular convex polytope called the 7-dimensional cross-polytope, or 7-dimensional hyperoctahedron, which is represented by the Schlaefli symbol {3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4}. It is the dual of the 7-dimensional hypercube. 6

COMMENTS

Kim asserts that every nonnegative integer can be represented by the sum of no more than 21 of these 7-crosspolytope numbers.

Starting with 1 = binomial transform of [1, 13, 72, 220, 400, 432, 256, 0, 0, 0,...], where (1, 13, 72, 220, 400, 432, 256) = row 7 of the Chebyshev triangle A081277. Also = row 7 of the array in A142978. - Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), Jul 19 2008

FORMULA

a(n) = 7-crosspolytope(n) = n*(4*n^6 + 70*n^4 + 196*n^2 + 45 )/315.

G.f.: x*(1+x)^6/(1-x)^8. [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Jul 18 2009]

EXAMPLE

a(3) = 99 because 3*(4*3^6 + 70*3^4 + 196*3^2 + 45 )/315 = 99.
