COMMENT

The Frobenius number of a numerical semigroup generated by relatively prime integers a_1,...,a_n is the largest positive integer that is not a nonnegative linear combination of a_1,...,a_n. Since consecutive centered squares are relatively prime, they generate a numerical semigroup with a Frobenius number. The Frobenius number of a 2-generator semigroup <a,b> is ab-a-b.

REFERENCES

R. Froberg, C. Gottlieb and R. Haggkvist, "On numerical semigroups", Semigroup Forum, 35 (1987), 63-83 (for definition of Frobenius number).

FORMULA

a(n) = 4n^4+16n^3+20n^2+8n-1

EXAMPLE

a(1)=47 because 47 is not a nonnegative linear combination of 5 and 13, but all integers greater than 47 are.
