COMMENTS

p divides a(p-1) for prime p > 2 - similar to Wolstenholme's theorem for A007406(n) ( numerator of Sum 1/k^2, k = 1..n ).

Also a(n) = Sqrt[Numerator[Sum[Sum[(-1)^(i+j)*1/(i*j)^2, {i, 1, n}], {j, 1, n}]]] - Alexander Adamchuk (alex(AT)kolmogorov.com), Jun 26 2006

FORMULA

a(n) = numerator[ Sum[ (-1)^(k+1)*1/k^2, {k,1, n} ] ].

Also a(n) = Abs[Numerator[Sum[Sum[(-1)^(i+j) * j/i^2, {i, 1, n}], {j, 1, n}]]]. - Alexander Adamchuk (alex(AT)kolmogorov.com), Jun 26 2006

MATHEMATICA

Sqrt[Numerator[Table[Sum[Sum[(-1)^(i+j)*1/(i*j)^2, {i, 1, n}], {j, 1, n}], {n, 1, 20}]]] - Alexander Adamchuk (alex(AT)kolmogorov.com), Jun 26 2006

PROG

(PARI) Numerator[Table[Sum[(-1)^(i+1)*1/i^2, {i, 1, n}], {n, 1, 40}]]
