%N Euler characteristics of some Calabi-Yau n-folds.

%C These numbers are Euler characteristics of Calabi-Yau subvarieties in some weighted projective spaces. See formula B.8 in Bourjaily et alii.

%C a(n) is divisible by n.

%H Jacob L. Bourjaily, Andrew J. McLeod, Cristian Vergu, Matthias Volk, Matt von Hippel, and Matthias Wilhelm, <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/1910.01534">Embedding Feynman Integral (Calabi-Yau) Geometries in Weighted Projective Space</a>, arXiv:1910.01534 [hep-th], 2019-2020.

%F a(n) = (1-(1-2*n)^n+2*n^2)/(2*n).

%o (Sage) [(1-(1-2*n)**n+2*n**2)/n/2 for n in range(1,18)]
