Suppose the vertices of a triangle are (S(n), S(n+j)), (S(n+2*j), S(n+3*j)) and (S(n+4*j), S(n+5*j)) where S(n) is the n-th square number, A000290(n). Then the area of this triangle will be a(j). A generalization follows: let P(k,n) = the n-th k-gonal number and suppose the vertices of a triangle are (P(k,n), P(k,n+j)), (P(k,n+2*j), P(k,n+3*j)) and (P(k,n+4*j), P(k,n+5*j)). Then the area of this triangle will be (2*k-4)^2*j^4. See also A141046 for k = 3. - Charlie Marion, Mar 26 2021

G.f.: 16*x*(x+1)*(x^2+10*x+1)/(1-x)^5. - Maksym Voznyy (voznyy(AT)mail.ru), Aug 11 2009
E.g.f.: 16*x*(1 + 7*x + 6*x^2 + x^3)*exp(x). - G. C. Greubel, Sep 15 2018
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = Pi^4/1440 (conjecturally A258945).
Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = 7*Pi^4/11520. (End)
