COMMENTS

Records are attained at the larger Heegener numbers (A003173).

T. Piezas draws attention on the fact that the integers very close to exp(pi sqrt(n)) are of the form (12(k^2-1))^3+744. Here this closeness is expressed as the (rounded value) of the reciprocal of the (signed) distance of these k-values from the integers.

EXAMPLE

We have e^(pi sqrt(19))-744 = (12(x^2-1))^3 with x = 2.9999998883... = 3 - 1/8954017.533..., therefore a(19) = 8954018.

In the same way, e^(pi sqrt(163))-744 = (12(x^2-1))^3 with x = 230.999999999999999999999999999890... = 231 - 1/9093255353570474976233448828.20..., thus a(163) = 9093255353570474976233448828.

PROG

(PARI) default(realprecision, 200); A138851(n)={ n=frac( sqrt( sqrtn( exp( sqrt(n)*Pi )-744, 3)/12 + 1 )); round( 1/(round(n)-n)) }
