%N Diagonal of the rational function 1/(1-(1+w)(xy + xz + yz)) [even-indexed terms only].

%C Odd-order terms are zero since R(x,y,z,w) = R(-x,-y,-z,w), where R(x,y,z,w) = 1/(1-(1+w)*(x*y + x*z + y*z)).

%C From _Peter Bala_, Jun 22 2023: (Start)

%C a(n) = A(n,n,2*n,2*n) (= A(2*n,2*n,n,n)) in the notation of Straub, equation 8, where it is shown that the supercongruences a(n*p^r) == a(n*p^(r-1)) (mod p^(3*r)) hold for all primes p >= 5 and all positive integers n and r. This also follows from Meštrović equation 39, since a(n) = binomial(3*n,n)^2 * binomial(2*n,n).

%C Inductively define a family of sequences {a(i,n) : n >= 0}, i >= 1, by setting a(1,n) = a(n) and, for i >= 2, a(i,n) = [x^n] ( exp(Sum_{k >= 1} a(i-1,k)*x^k/k) )^n.

%C We conjecture that the sequences {a(i,n) : n >= 0}, i >= 2, also satisfy the supercongruences u(n*p^r) == u(n*p^(r-1)) (mod p^(3*r)) for all primes p >= 5, and positive integers n and r. Cf. A362725 and A362732. (End)
