%N a(n) = (4*n+3)*(4*n+2).

%C Since 0 = Sin(Pi) = Sum_{n>=0}(-1)^n*Pi^(2n+1)/(2n+1)!, we can move the negative terms to the other side of the equation to get: Sum_{n>=0} Pi^(4n+1)/(4n+1)! = Sum_{n>=0}Pi^(4n+3)/(4n+3)!.

%C Now, if we let f(n) = Pi^(4n+1)/(4n+1)!, then the previous equation can be written as Sum_{n>=0}f(n) = Sum_{n>=0}(Pi^2/((4*n+3)*(4*n+2)))*f(n); a(n) is the n-th denominator on the right hand side.
