Comments

For p > 1, q > 1, limit_{n->oo} ( Product_{k=0..n} (p^k + q^(n-k)) )^(1/n^2) = exp((1/2) * (log(p)^2 + log(p)*log(q) + log(q)^2) / log(p*q)); formula due to Vaclav Kotesovec (cf. A369680).

Table of n, a(n) for n=0..10.

Formula

a(n) = Product_{k=0..n} (4^k + 5^(n-k)).

a(n) = 20^(n*(n+1)/2) * Product_{k=0..n} (1/4^k + 1/5^(n-k)).

a(n) = 5^(n*(n+1)/2) * Product_{k=0..n} (1 + 4^n/20^k).

a(n) = 4^(n*(n+1)/2) * Product_{k=0..n} (1 + 5^n/20^k).

a(n) = 4^(-n*(n+1)/2) * Product_{k=0..n} (4^n + 20^k).

a(n) = 5^(-n*(n+1)/2) * Product_{k=0..n} (5^n + 20^k).

Limit_{n->oo} a(n)^(1/n^2) = exp((1/2) * (log(4)^2 + log(4)*log(5) + log(5)^2) / log(20)) = 3.0816872899745614612763875038173884057052077... [from a formula by Vaclav Kotesovec].

Example

a(0) = (1 + 1) = 2;
a(1) = (1 + 5)*(4 + 1) = 30;
a(2) = (1 + 5^2)*(4 + 5)*(4^2 + 1) = 3978;
a(3) = (1 + 5^3)*(4 + 5^2)*(4^2 + 5)*(4^3 + 1) = 4987710;
a(4) = (1 + 5^4)*(4 + 5^3)*(4^2 + 5^2)*(4^3 + 5)*(4^4 + 1) = 58712437962;
a(5) = (1 + 5^5)*(4 + 5^4)*(4^2 + 5^3)*(4^3 + 5^2)*(4^4 + 5)*(4^5 + 1) = 6601051349841150;
