a(n) mod 5 = 0 iff n mod 5 > 0: a(A008587(n)) = 4; a(A047201(n)) = 0; a(n) mod 5 = 4*(1-A079998(n)).
A129292(n) = number of divisors of a(n) that are not greater than n. - Reinhard Zumkeller, Apr 09 2007

FORMULA

G.f.: x^2*(15 + 5*x + 5*x^2 - x^3)/(1-x)^5. - Colin Barker, Jan 10 2012
-4*a(n+1) = -4*n*(n+2)*(n^2+2*n+2) = (n+n*i)*(n+2+n*i)*(n+(n+2)*i)*(n+2+(n+2)*i), where i is the imaginary unit. - Jon Perry, Feb 05 2014
From Vaclav Kotesovec, Feb 14 2015: (Start)
Sum_{n>=2} 1/a(n) = 7/8 - Pi*coth(Pi)/4.
Sum_{n>=2} (-1)^n / a(n) = 1/8 - Pi/(4*sinh(Pi)). (End)
a(n) = A005563(A005563(n)). - Bruno Berselli, May 28 2015
E.g.f.: 1 + (-1 + x + 7*x^2 + 6*x^3 + x^4)*exp(x). - G. C. Greubel, Aug 08 2019
