An autosequence of the first kind is a sequence which main diagonal is A000004.
Difference table of a(n)/A093803(n):
0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 16/3, ...
1, 0, 1, 1, 7/3, 11/3, ...
-1, 1, 0, 4/3, 4/3, 10/3, ...
2, -1, 4/3, 0, 2, 2, ...
-3, 7/3, -4/3, 2, 0, 16/5, ...
16/3, -11/3, 10/3, -2, 16/5, 0, ...
etc.
This is an autosequence of the first kind.
From Robert Israel, Apr 03 2017: (Start)
If p is a prime == 5 (mod 8), then a(5*p) = (2^(5*p-1)-1)/5 and a(5*p+3) = 2^(5*p) = 10*a(5*p)+2. This explains pairs such as
a(25) = 3355443
a(28) = 33554432
and
a(65) = 3689348814741910323
a(68) = 36893488147419103232. (End)
