Comments

If X is an n-set and Y a fixed 2-subset of X then a(n-5) is equal to the number of (n-5)-subsets of X intersecting Y. - Milan Janjic, Jul 30 2007

a(n-1) = risefac(n,5)/5! - risefac(n,3)/3! is for n >= 1 also the number of independent components of a symmetric traceless tensor of rank 5 and dimension n. Here risefac is the rising factorial. Put a(0) = 0. - Wolfdieter Lang, Dec 10 2015

Formula

G.f.: x*(2-x)/(1-x)^6.

a(n) = binomial(n+4, n-1) + binomial(n+3, n-1) = (1/120)*n*(n+9)*(n+3)*(n+2)*(n+1).

a(n+1) = -A127672(10+n, n), n >= 0, with the coefficients of the Chebyshev C-polynomials A127672(n, k). - Wolfdieter Lang, Dec 10 2015

a(n) = Sum_{i=1..n} A000217(i)*A000096(n+1-i). - Bruno Berselli, Mar 05 2018

a(n) = binomial(n+3,5) + 2*binomial(n+3,4). - Yuchun Ji, May 23 2019

From Amiram Eldar, Feb 17 2023: (Start)

Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = 40751/63504.

Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = 1360*log(2)/63 - 922961/63504. (End)
