An autosequence of the first kind is a sequence which main diagonal is A000004.

Difference table of a(n)/A093803(n):

0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 16/3, ...

1, 0, 1, 1, 7/3, 11/3, ...

-1, 1, 0, 4/3, 4/3, 10/3, ...

2, -1, 4/3, 0, 2, 2, ...

-3, 7/3, -4/3, 2, 0, 16/5, ...

16/3, -11/3, 10/3, -2, 16/5, 0, ...

etc.

This is an autosequence of the first kind.

Its first (or second) upper diagonal is A075101(n)/(2*A000265(n)).

From Robert Israel, Apr 03 2017: (Start)

If p is a prime == 5 (mod 8), then a(5*p) = (2^(5*p-1)-1)/5 and a(5*p+3) = 2^(5*p) = 10*a(5*p)+2. This explains pairs such as

a(25) = 3355443

a(28) = 33554432

and

a(65) = 3689348814741910323

a(68) = 36893488147419103232. (End)
