A101194 G.f. defined as the limit: A(x) = limit_{n->oo} F(n)^(1/5^(n-1)) where F(n) is the n-th iteration of: F(0) = 1, F(n) = F(n-1)^5 + (5x)^((5^n-1)/4) for n>=1. +0

COMMENT

The Euler transform of the power series A(x) at x=1/5 converges to the constant: c = Sum_{n=0..infty} Sum_{k=0..n} C(n,k)*a(k)/5^k)/2^(n+1)) = 2.012346619142363112612326559... which is the limit of S(n)^(1/5^(n-1)) where S(0)=1, S(n+1) = S(n)^5 +1.

FORMULA

G.f. begins: A(x) = (1+m*x) + m^m*x^(m+1)/(1+m*x)^(m-1) +... at m=5.

EXAMPLE

The iteration begins:

F(0) = 1,

F(1) = 1 +5*x

F(2) = 1 +25*x +250*x^2 +1250*x^3 +3125*x^4 +3125*x^5 +15625*x^6

F(3) = 1 +125*x +7500*x^2 +287500*x^3 +... + 5^31*x^31.

The 5^(n-1)-th root of F(n) tend to the limit of A(x):

F(1)^(1/5^0) = 1 +5*x

F(2)^(1/5^1) = 1 +5*x +3125*x^6 -62500*x^7 +781250*x^8 +...

F(3)^(1/5^2) = 1 +5*x +3125*x^6 -62500*x^7 +781250*x^8 +...

PROGRAM

(PARI) {a(n)=local(F=1, A, L); if(n==0, A=1, L=ceil(log(n+1)/log(5)); for(k=1, L, F=F^5+(5*x)^((5^k-1)/4)); A=polcoeff((F+x*O(x^n))^(1/5^(L-1)), n)); A}
