Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

COMMENTS
The constant h in Heath-Brown et al. (2005). The asymptotic number of integers n below x which occur as indices of subgroups of nonabelian finite simple groups, excluding that of A_{n-1} in A_n (where A_n is the simple alternating group), is ~ h*x/log(x).
The constant appears in the asymptotic formula for the count of terms of A370745.
