COMMENT

Denominators of alternating sums over central binomial coefficients scaled by powers of 5.

Numerators are given by A124397.

For the rationals r(n) see the W. Lang link under A124397.

r(n) is not 1/3 times the rational sequence A123747/A123748 which converges to sqrt(5).

FORMULA

a(n)=denominator(r(n)) with the rationals r(n):=sum(((-1)^k)*binomial(2*k,k)/5^k,k=0..n) in lowest terms.

r(n)=sum(((-1)^k)*((2*k-1)!!/((2*k)!!)*(4/5)^k,k=0..n),n>=0, with the double factorials A001147 and A000165.

EXAMPLE

a(3)=25 because r(3)= 1-2/5+6/25-4/25 = 17/25 = A124397(3)/a(3).
