A001074 Numbers m such that Sum_{k=0..m-1} exp(2*Pi*i*k^3/m) != 0. 3

%I #13 Jul 29 2021 09:30:51

%S 1,4,7,8,9,13,19,25,27,28,31,32,36,37,43,49,52,56,61,63,64,67,72,73,

%T 76,79,91,97,100,103,104,108,109,117,121,124,125,127,133,139,148,151,

%N Numbers m such that Sum_{k=0..m-1} exp(2*Pi*i*k^3/m) != 0.

%C Mark m points around a horizontal disk with labels 0..m-1; place coins at positions k^3 mod m for k=0..m-1; sequence gives values of m for which the disk is not balanced.

%H T. D. Noe, <a href="/A001074/b001074.txt">Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..1000</a>

%e 8 is in the sequence because 4 coins go at 0, and 1 each at 1, 3, 5, 7, so the disk is unbalanced in the direction of point 0.

%e 12 is not in the sequence because there are 2 coins at 0, 4, 8 and 1 coin at 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, so the disk is balanced.

%t Select[Range[300], Sum[Exp[2 Pi*I*k^3/#], {k, 0, # - 1}] != 0 &] (* _T. D. Noe_, Jun 25 2012 *)
