COMMENT

A112373 is defined by the recurrence: let b(n) = A112373(n), then

b(n) =(b(n-1)^3 + b(n-1)^2)/b(n-2) for n>=2 with b(0)=b(1)=1.

The next term is too large to include.

FORMULA

a(n) = a(n-1)*(1 + a(0)*a(1)*a(2)*...*a(n-1)) for n>=1, with a(0)=1.

a(n) = a(n-1)*(1 - a(n-1) + a(n-1)^2/a(n-2)) for n>=2, with a(0)=1, a(1)=2.

EXAMPLE

a(5) = 4999703411742 = 73086*(1 + 1*2*6*78*73086).

a(5) = a(4)*(1 - a(4) + a(4)^2/a(3)) = 73086*(1 - 73086 + 73086^2/78).

PROGRAM

(PARI) a(n)=if(n==0, 1, if(n==1, 2, a(n-1)*(1-a(n-1)+a(n-1)^2/a(n-2))))
