From Wolfdieter Lang, Sep 14 2007: (Start)
a(n), n >= 1, enumerates quintic trees (rooted, ordered, incomplete) with n vertices (including the root).
This is the Pfaff-Fuss-Catalan sequence C^{m}_n for m = 5. See the Graham et al. reference, p. 347. eq. 7.66. See also the Pólya-Szegő reference.
Also 5-Raney sequence. See the Graham et al. reference, pp. 346-347. (End)
a(n) = A258708(3*n, 2*n) for n > 0. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Jun 23 2015
Conjecturally, a(n) is the number of 4-uniform words on the alphabet [n] that avoid the patterns 231 and 221 (see the Defant and Kravitz link). - Colin Defant, Sep 26 2018
From Stillwell (1995), p. 62: "Eisenstein's Theorem. If y^5 + y = x, then y has a power series expansion y = x - x^5 + 10*x^9/2^1 - 15 * 14 * x^13/3! + 20 * 19 * 18*x^17/4! - ...." - Michael Somos, Sep 19 2019
a(n) is the total number of down steps before the first up step in all 4_1-Dyck paths of length 5*n. A 4_1-Dyck path is a lattice path with steps (1, 4), (1, -1) that starts and ends at y = 0 and stays above the line y = -1. - Sarah Selkirk, May 10 2020

FORMULA

For the connection with the solution of the quintic, hypergeometric series, and Lagrange inversion, see Beukers (2014). - N. J. A. Sloane, Mar 12 2014
G.f.: hypergeometric([1, 2, 3, 4] / 5, [2, 3, 5] / 4, x * 5^5 / 4^4). - Michael Somos, Mar 17 2011
O.g.f. A(x) satisfies A(x) = 1 + x * A(x)^5 = 1 / (1 - x * A(x)^4).
Given g.f. A(x) then z = t * A(t^4) satisfies 0 = z^5 - z + t. - Michael Somos, Mar 17 2011
a(n) = binomial(5*n, n - 1)/n, n >= 1, a(0) = 1. From the Lagrange series of the o.g.f. A(x) with its above given implicit equation.
a(n) = upper left term in M^n, M = the production matrix:
1, 1;
4, 4, 1;
10, 10, 4, 1;
20, 20, 10, 4, 1;
...
(where (1, 4, 10, 20, ...) is the tetrahedral sequence, A000292. - Gary W. Adamson, Jul 08 2011
D-finite with recurrence: 8*n*(4*n+1)*(2*n-1)*(4*n-1)*a(n) - 5*(5*n-4)*(5*n-3)*(5*n-2)*(5*n-1)*a(n-1) = 0. - R. J. Mathar, Dec 02 2014
a(n) = binomial(5*n + 1, n)/(5*n + 1) = A062993(n+3,3). - Robert FERREOL, Apr 03 2015
a(0) = 1; a(n) = Sum_{i1 + i2 + ... + i5 = n - 1} a(i1) * a(i2) * ... *a(i5) for n >= 1. - Robert FERREOL, Apr 03 2015
From Ilya Gutkovskiy, Jan 15 2017: (Start)
O.g.f.: 5F4([1/5, 2/5, 3/5, 4/5, 1]; [1/2, 3/4, 1, 5/4]; 3125*x/256).
E.g.f.: 4F4([1/5, 2/5, 3/5, 4/5]; [1/2, 3/4, 1, 5/4]; 3125*x/256).
a(n) ~ 5^(5*n + 1/2)/(sqrt(Pi) * 2^(8*n + 7/2) * n^(3/2)). (End)
x*A'(x)/A(x) = (A(x) - 1)/(- 4*A(x) + 5) = x + 9*x^2 + 91*x^3 + 969*x^4 + ... is the o.g.f. of A163456. Cf. A001764 and A002293 - A002296. - Peter Bala, Feb 04 2022

EXAMPLE
|
There are a(2) = 5 quintic trees (vertex degree <= 5 and 5 possible branchings) with 2 vertices (one of them the root). Adding one more branch (one more vertex) to these five trees yields 5*5 + binomial(5,2) = 35 = a(3) such trees.
G.f. = 1 + x + 5*x^2 + 35*x^3 + 285*x^4 + 2530*x^5 + 23751*x^6 + 231880*x^7 + ...
G.f. = t + t^5 + 5*t^9 + 35*t^13 + 285*t^17 + 2530*t^21 + 23751*t^25 + 231880*t^29 + ...
