%N Denominator of volume of best symplectic packing of n balls in 4-dimensional ball.

%C Explanation, figure, table, references in Traynor. McDuff and Polterovich's existence proof of these packings in nonexplicit; they result from the symplectic blow-up operation. Explicit constructions for n = 8 and n = 9 are still unknown. Biran showed that A125846(n) = A125847(n) = 1 for all n>9.

%D See A125846 for references.

%F A125846(n)/a(n) is maximal symplectic packing density with n balls, as calculated by McDuff and Polterovich.

%e For n = 1..9, densities are 1, 1/2, 3/4, 1, 4/5, 24/25, 63/64, 288/289, 1.

%Y Cf. A125846.

%Y See A030042/A030043 for an unreduced version.
