%N a(n) = [x^n] 1/(1 + x) * Legendre_P(n, (1 - x)/(1 + x))^(-1) for n >= 0.

%C Row 1 of A364298.

%C Compare with the Apéry numbers A005258, which are related to the Legendre polynomials by A005258(n) = [x^n] 1/(1 - x) * Legendre_P(n, (1 + x)/(1 - x)).

%C A005258 satisfies the supercongruences

%C 1) u (n*p^r) == u(n*p^(r-1)) (mod p^(3*r))

%C and the shifted supercongruences

%C 2) u (n*p^r - 1) == u(n*p^(r-1) - 1) (mod p^(3*r))

%C for all primes p >= 5 and positive integers n and r.

%C We conjecture that the present sequence also satisfies the supercongruences 1) and 2).

%F Conjectures:

%F 1) 13*a(p) - 7*a(p-1) == 6 (mod p^5) for all primes p >= 3 (checked up to p = 101).

%F 2) for r >= 2, 13*a(p^r) - 7*a(p^r - 1) == 13*a(p^(r-1)) - 7*a(p^(r-1) - 1) (mod p^(3*r+3)) for all primes p >= 5.

%F 3) a(p)^13 == a(p-1)^7 (mod p^5) for all primes p >= 3 (checked up to p = 101).

%F 4) for r >= 2, a(p^r)^13 * a(p^(r-1) - 1)^7 == a(p^(r-1))^13 * a(p^r - 1)^7 (mod p^(3*r+3)) for all primes p >= 5.

%p a(n) := coeff(series( 1/(1 + x) * LegendreP(n, (1 - x)/(1 + x))^(-1), x, 21), x, n):

%p seq(a(n), n = 0..20);
