COMMENTS
|
Can be understood as generalized iterated square pyramidal numbers. The growth of the sequence is bounded by O(n^3^n/3^(n/2)). This can be derived from the growth O(n^3/3) of the power two sum (1^2+2^2+3^2+...+n^2) by iteration.

FORMULA
|
Let T(n):=sum{k^2|k=1...n}; we define a(1):=T(1), a(2):=T(T(2)) etc., a(n):=T(T(T(...T(n))...))).
|
|
EXAMPLE
|
a(2)=T(T(2))=T(5)=55;
a(3)=T(T(T(3)))=T(T(14)=T(1015)=349074740.
