COMMENTS
Key-numbers of the pitches of a major seventh chord on a standard chromatic keyboard, with root = 0.
FORMULA
a(n) = a(n-4) + 12 for n > 4.
a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-4) - a(n-5) for n > 5.
G.f.: x^2*(4 + 3*x + 4*x^2 + x^3)/((1 + x)*(1 + x^2)*(1 - x)^2).
a(n) = (6*n - 4 + (-1)^n + sqrt(2)*cos(Pi*n/2 + Pi/4))/2.
E.g.f.: ((6*x - 3)*cosh(x) + (6*x - 5)*sinh(x) + sqrt(2)*cos(x + Pi/4) + 2)/2.
Sum_{n>=2} (-1)^n/a(n) = log(3)/8 + log(2+sqrt(3))/(2*sqrt(3)) - 5*sqrt(3)*Pi/72. - Amiram Eldar, Dec 30 2021
