FORMULA
a(n) = Product_{k=0..n} (3^k + 5^(n-k)).
a(n) = 15^(n*(n+1)/2) * Product_{k=0..n} (1/3^k + 1/5^(n-k)).
a(n) = 5^(n*(n+1)/2) * Product_{k=0..n} (1 + 3^n/15^k).
a(n) = 3^(n*(n+1)/2) * Product_{k=0..n} (1 + 5^n/15^k).
a(n) = 3^(-n*(n+1)/2) * Product_{k=0..n} (3^n + 15^k).
a(n) = 5^(-n*(n+1)/2) * Product_{k=0..n} (5^n + 15^k).
a(n) = 3^(n*(n+1)/2)*QPochhammer(-5^n, 1/15, n + 1). - Stefano Spezia, Feb 07 2024
Limit_{n->oo} a(n)^(1/n^2) = 3^(1/(2*(1 + log(5)/log(3)))) * sqrt(5) = 5^(1/(2*(1 + log(3)/log(5)))) * sqrt(3) = 2.794249622709633938040980858655052416325961... - Vaclav Kotesovec, Feb 07 2024
Equivalently, limit_{n->oo} a(n)^(1/n^2) = exp((1/2) * (log(3)^2 + log(3)*log(5) + log(5)^2) / log(15)). - Paul D. Hanna, Feb 08 2024
EXAMPLE
a(0) = (1 + 1) = 2;
a(1) = (1 + 5)*(3 + 1) = 24;
a(2) = (1 + 5^2)*(3 + 5)*(3^2 + 1) = 2080;
a(3) = (1 + 5^3)*(3 + 5^2)*(3^2 + 5)*(3^3 + 1) = 1382976;
a(4) = (1 + 5^4)*(3 + 5^3)*(3^2 + 5^2)*(3^3 + 5)*(3^4 + 1) = 7148699648;
a(5) = (1 + 5^5)*(3 + 5^4)*(3^2 + 5^3)*(3^3 + 5^2)*(3^4 + 5)*(3^5 + 1) = 287041728769536;
