COMMENTS

Let $ denote the swinging factorial. a(n) is the radical of (2*n+1)$ which is the product of the prime numbers dividing (2*n+1)$. It is the largest squarefree divisor of (2*n+1)$, and so also described as the squarefree kernel of (2*n+1)$.

EXAMPLE

(2*5+1)$ = 2772 = 2^2*3^2*7*11. Therefore a(5) = 2*3*7*11 = 462.

MAPLE

a := proc(n) local p; mul(p, p=numtheory[factorset]((2*n+1)!/iquo(2*n+1, 2)!^2)) end:

CROSSREFS

A056040(n) = n$, A163641(n) = rad(n$), A080397(n) = rad((2n)$).
