A124433 Irregular array {a(n,m)} read by rows where (sum{n>=1} sum{m=1 to A001222(n)+1} a(n,m)*y^m/n^x) = 1/(zeta(x)-1+1/y) for all x and y where the double sum converges. 0

COMMENTS

Row n has A001222(n)+1 terms. The polynomial P_n(y) = (sum{m=1 to A001222(n)+1} a(n,m)*y^m) is a generalization of the Mobius (Moebius) function, where P_n(1) = A008683(n).

FORMULA

a(1,1)=1. a(n,1) = 0 for n>=2. a(n,m+1) = -sum{k|n,k < n} a(k,m), where, for the purpose of this sum, a(k,m) = 0 if m > A001222(k)+1.

EXAMPLE

1/(zeta(x) - 1 + 1/y) = y - y^2/2^x - y^2/3^x + ( - y^2 + y^3)/4^x - y^2/5^x + ( - y^2 + 2y^3)/6^x - y^2/7^x + ...

MATHEMATICA

f[l_List] := Block[{n = Length[l] + 1, c}, c = Plus @@ Last /@ FactorInteger[n]; Append[l, Prepend[ -Plus @@ Pick[PadRight[ #, c] & /@ l, Mod[n, Range[n - 1]], 0], 0]]]; Nest[f, {{1}}, 34] // Flatten(*Chandler*)
