Formula

From Colin Barker, Jul 24 2017: (Start)

G.f.: 1 / (1 - 6*x)^9.

a(n) = (2^(-7 + n)*3^(-2 + n)*(1 + n)*(2 + n)*(3 + n)*(4 + n)*(5 + n)*(6 + n)*(7 + n)*(8 + n)) / 35.

(End)

From Amiram Eldar, Aug 29 2022: (Start)

Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n) = 4785948/7 - 3750000*log(6/5).

Sum_{n>=0} (-1)^n/a(n) = 39530064*log(7/6) - 213275484/35. (End)
