COMMENTS

Product of Artin's constant of rank 4 and the equivalent almost-prime products.

FORMULA

The logarithm is -sum_{s>=2} sum_{j=1..floor[s/(1+r)]} binomial(s-r*j-1,j-1)*(1-Zeta(s))/j at r=4.

s*sum_{j=1..floor[s/5]} binomial(s-4j-1,j-1)/j = A058368(s)-1.

Equals 1/product_{k=1..5} Gamma(1-x_k), where x_k are the 5 roots of the polynomial x*(x+1)^4-1. [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Feb 20 2009]

EXAMPLE

0.9298384739543468522383.. = (1-1/16)*(1-1/162)*(1-1/768)*(1-1/2500)*..

MAPLE

r := 4 : ni := fsolve( (n+1)^r*n-1, n, complex) : 1.0/mul(GAMMA(1-d), d=ni) ; [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Feb 20 2009]
