For even n > 2, a(n) = n(n+4)/4. - David Wasserman (wasserma(AT)spawar.navy.mil), Aug 19 2002 %e A064796 n=5: we must arrange the numbers 1..5 in a circle so that the max of the products of pairs of adjacent terms is minimized. The answer is 15243, with max product = 12, so a(5) = 12. %Y A064796 Cf.
