A047235 Numbers that are congruent to {2, 4} mod 6. 40

%I #94 Dec 03 2022 17:09:22

%S 2,4,8,10,14,16,20,22,26,28,32,34,38,40,44,46,50,52,56,58,62,64,68,70,

%T 74,76,80,82,86,88,92,94,98,100,104,106,110,112,116,118,122,124,128,

%U 130,134,136,140,142,146,148,152,154,158,160,164,166,170,172,176,178,182,184,188,190,194,196,200,202,206

%N Numbers that are congruent to {2, 4} mod 6.

%C Apart from initial term(s), dimension of the space of weight 2n cuspidal newforms for Gamma_0( 19 ).

%C Complement of A047273; A093719(a(n)) = 0. - _Reinhard Zumkeller_, Oct 01 2008

%C One could prefix an initial term "1" (or not) and define this sequence through a(n+1) = a(n) + (a(n) mod 6). See A001651 for the analog with 3, A235700 (with 5), A047350 (with 7), A007612 (with 9) and A102039 (with 10). Using 4 or 8 yields a constant sequence from that term on. - _M. F. Hasler_, Jan 14 2014

%C Nonnegative m such that m^2/6 + 1/3 is an integer. - _Bruno Berselli_, Apr 13 2017

%C Numbers divisible by 2 but not by 3. - _David James Sycamore_, Apr 04 2018

%C Numbers k for which A276086(k) is of the form 6m+3. - _Antti Karttunen_, Dec 03 2022

%F a(n) = 2*A001651(n).

%F n such that phi(3*n) = phi(2*n). - _Benoit Cloitre_, Aug 06 2003

%F a(n) = 3*n + 5..n odd, 3*n + 4..n even a(n) = 6*floor((n+1)/2) + 3 + (-1)^n. - _Gary Detlefs_, Mar 02 2010

%F a(n) = 6*n - a(n-1) - 6 (with a(1) = 2). - _Vincenzo Librandi_, Aug 05 2010

%F a(n+1) = a(n) + (a(n) mod 6). - _M. F. Hasler_, Jan 14 2014

%F Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n)^2 = Pi^2/27. - _Dimitris Valianatos_, Oct 10 2017

%F a(n) = (6*n - (-1)^n - 3)/2. - _Ammar Khatab_, Aug 23 2020

%F Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = Pi/(6*sqrt(3)). - _Amiram Eldar_, Dec 11 2021

%F E.g.f.: 2 + ((6*x - 3)*exp(x) - exp(-x))/2. - _David Lovler_, Aug 25 2022

%p seq(6*floor((n+1)/2) + 3 + (-1)^n, n=1..67); # _Gary Detlefs_, Mar 02 2010

%t Flatten[Table[{6n - 4, 6n - 2}, {n, 40}]] (* _Alonso del Arte_, Oct 27 2014 *)

%o (Magma) [ n eq 1 select 2 else Self(n-1)+2*(1+n mod 2): n in [1..70] ]; // _Klaus Brockhaus_, Dec 13 2008

%o (PARI) a(n)=(n-1)\2*6+3+(-1)^n \\ _Charles R Greathouse IV_, Jul 01 2013

%o (PARI) first(n) = my(v = vector(n, i, 3*i - 1)); forstep(i = 2, n, 2, v[i]--); v \\ _David A. Corneth_, Oct 20 2017

%Y Cf. A093719, A047273 (complement), A120325 (characteristic function).

%Y Equals 2*A001651.

%Y Cf. A007310 ((6*n+(-1)^n-3)/2). - _Bruno Berselli_, Jun 24 2010

%Y Positions of 3's in A053669 and in A358840.
