Comments

Main transitions in systems of n particles with spin 9/2.

Please, refer to the general explanation in A212697.

This particular sequence is obtained for base b=10, corresponding to spin S = (b-1)/2 = 9/2.

Number of 0 needed to write all numbers of n+1 digits. - Bruno Berselli, Jun 30 2014

Essentially the same as A113119. - Bernard Schott, Nov 15 2022

From Bernard Schott, Nov 22 2022: (Start)

Number of nonzero digits needed to write all integers from 1 up to 10^n - 1.

a(n) is a square iff n in { A016754 union A033583\{0} } (see formulas). (End)

Formula

a(n) = n*(b-1)*b^(n-1) with b=10.

From R. J. Mathar, Oct 15 2013: (Start)

G.f.: 9*x / (10*x-1)^2.

a(n) = 9*A053541(n). (End)

From Bernard Schott, Nov 14 2022: (Start)

a(n+1) - a(n) = 9*A081045(n).

a(n) = A113119(n) for n > 1.

a(n) = A033713(n+1) - A033713(n) = A033714(n+1) - A033714(n).

a(A016754(n)) = (3 * (2n+1) * 10^(2*n*(n+1)))^2.

a(A033583(n)) = (3 * n * 10^(5*n^2))^2. (End)
