FORMULA

a(n)=product{k=1..n, if(gcd(n+1, k)=1, (I+I*exp(2*pi*I*k/(n+1))), 1)}, I=sqrt(-1).

Contribution from Peter Luschny, Jun 9 2011: (Start) alpha(n) = product{0<k<n} (if(gcd(k,n)=1, 2*cos(Pi*k/n), 1); a(n) = alpha(n+1). Cf. the formula in A014963 with cos replaced by sin. (End)

EXAMPLE

(x+I)(x-I)=1+x^2

MAPLE

A105609 := proc(n)local k: round(Re(mul(evalf(`if`(gcd(n+1, k)=1, I+I*exp(2*Pi*I*k/(n+1)), 1)), k=1..n))): end:

seq(A105609(n), n=0..20); # Nathaniel Johnston, Apr 20 2011

A105609 := proc(n) local k; mul(`if`(igcd(n+1, k)=1, 2*cos(Pi*k/(n+1)), 1), k=1..n) end; seq(round(A105609(n)), n = 0..73); # Peter Luschny, Jun 9 2011

MATHEMATICA

f[n_] := FullSimplify[ Expand[Times @@ (I + I*Exp[2Pi*I*Select[Range[n], GCD[ #, n] == 1 &]/n])]]; Table[ f[n], {n, 0, 32}] (from Robert G. Wilson v (rgwv(AT)rgwv.com), Aug 02 2005)
