FORMULA

n*(1+n)*(1+2*n)*(-1+3*n+3*n^2)/30.

The preceding formula is due to al-Kachi (1394-1437). - Juri-Stepan Gerasimov, Jul 12 2009

G.f.: x*(1+11*x+11*x^2+x^3)/(1-x)^6. More generally, g.f. for Sum_{k=0..n} k^m is Euler(m, x)/(1-x)^(m+2), where Euler(m, x) is Eulerian polynomial of degree m (cf. A008292). E.g.f.: x/(1-x)^2*(exp(y/(1-x))-exp(x*y/(1-x)))/(exp(x*y/(1-x))-x*exp(y/(1-x))). - Vladeta Jovovic (vladeta(AT)eunet.rs), May 08 2002

MAPLE

A000538:=(1+z)*(z**2+10*z+1)/(z-1)**6; [S. Plouffe in his 1992 dissertation. Gives sequence without initial zero.]
