Comments

Old name was: Series reversion of x - 2*x^5.

Regular blocks of 3 intermediate zeros have been left out of the sequence: If y = x - 2x^5, then x = y + 2*y^5 + 20*y^9 + 280*y^13 + 4560*y^17 - ...

a(n) is the number of lattice paths (Schroeder paths) from (0,0) to (n,5n) with unit steps N=(0,1), E=(1,0) and D=(1,1) staying weakly above the line y = 5x with the total number of occurrences of NE and D equal to n. - Michael D. Weiner, Aug 21 2019

Formula

D-finite with recurrence (4*n+1)*(4*n)*(4*n-1)*(4*n-2)*a(n) - 10*(5*n-4)*(5*n-3)*(5*n-2)*(5*n-1)*a(n-1) = 0.

a(n) ~ 5^(5*n)/(2^(7*n+4)*sqrt(Pi/10)*n^(3/2)). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Aug 20 2013

a(n) = Gamma(n+1/5)*Gamma(n+2/5)*Gamma(n+3/5)*Gamma(n+4/5)*6250^(n+1)*sqrt(5)/ (25000*Pi^2*Gamma(4*n+2)). - Robert Israel, May 19 2014

a(n) = 5*2^n*Gamma(5*n)/(Gamma(n)*Gamma(4*n+2)) for n > 0. - Peter Luschny, May 19 2014

G.f.: F([1/5, 2/5, 3/5, 4/5], [1/2, 3/4, 5/4], 3125*x/128), where F is the generalized hypergeometric function. - Stefano Spezia, Sep 03 2019

G.f. A(x) satisfies: A(x) = 1 / (1 - 2 * x * A(x)^4). - Ilya Gutkovskiy, Nov 12 2021
