COMMENT

p divides a(p+1) for an odd prime p. p^2 divides a(p+1) for prime p = {3, 7, 71, ...}. Determinant of n X n Vandermonde matrix of numbers 1,2,..n equals Product[ k!, {k,1,n-1} ] = A000178(n-1) Superfactorials.

FORMULA

a(n) = Sum[ i^j, {i,1,n}, {j,0,n-1} ]. a(n) = n + Sum[(i^n-1)/(i-1), {i,2,n} ].

MATHEMATICA

Table[ n + Sum[ (i^n-1)/(i-1), {i, 2, n} ], {n, 1, 25} ]

CROSSREFS

Cf. A060946 = Trace of Vandermonde matrix of numbers 1, 2, ..n. Cf. A000178 = Superfactorials: product of first n factorials.
