COMMENTS
Generalized harmonic numbers are defined as H(m,k) = Sum_{j=1..m} 1/j^k. Alternating generalized harmonic numbers are defined as H'(m,k) = Sum_{j=1..m} (-1)^(j+1)/j^k.
Sequence contains geometric progressions of the form (p-1)*p^k for k > 0 and some prime p > 5. Note the factorization of initial terms of {a(n)} = {6*7, 10*11, 12*13, 16*17, 6*7^2, 18*19, 22*23, 28*29, 30*31, 10*11*2, 36*37, 40*41, 42*43, 12*13^2, 6*7^3, ...}.
