COMMENT

a(n) = log to the base 2 of the n-th term of A073888 = log to the base 3 of the n-th term of A073889.

a(n) equals minus the determinant of M(n+2) where M(n) is the n X n symmetric tridiagonal matrix with entries 1 just above and below its diagonal and diagonal entries 0, 1, 2, .., n-1. Example: M(4)=matrix([[0, 1, 0, 0], [1, 1, 1, 0], [0, 1, 2, 1], [0, 0, 1, 3]]). - Roland Bacher (Roland.Bacher(AT)ujf-grenoble.fr), Jun 19 2001

FORMULA

a(n) =(n+1)*a(n-1)-a(n-2) [with a(0)=1 and a(-1)=0] =A058797(n+1)+A058799(n-1) - Henry Bottomley (se16(AT)btinternet.com), Feb 28 2001
