Comments

The sum of the digits of a(n) is divisible by 18. For example, 9^4 = 6561 and 6 + 5 + 6 + 1 = 18 * 1.

Number of 9 in a(n) is 2*n-2 for n > 0. - Seiichi Manyama, Sep 18 2018

Formula

a(n) = A059988(n)^2 = A002283(n)^4.

From Ilya Gutkovskiy, Apr 19 2016: (Start)

O.g.f.: 6561*x*(1 + 100*x)*(1 + 3430*x + 10000*x^2)/((1 - x)*(1 - 10*x)*(1 - 100*x)*(1 - 1000*x)*(1 - 10000*x)).

E.g.f.: (1 - 4*exp(9*x) + 6*exp(99*x) - 4*exp(999*x) + exp(9999*x))*exp(x). (End)
