COMMENT

If A is a random matrix in the compact group USp(6) (6x6 complex

matrices which are unitary and symplectic), then a(n)=E[(tr(A^4))^n] is the nth

moment of the trace of A^4. See A138545 for central moments.

FORMULA

mgf is A(z) = det[F_{i+j-2}(z)], 1<=i,j<=3, where F_m(z) = Sum_j Binom(m,j)(B_{(2j-m)/4}(z)-B_{(2j-m+2)/4}(z)) and B_v(z)=0 for non-integer v and otherwise B_v(z)=I_v(2z), with I_v(z) the hyperbolic Bessel function (of the first kind) of order v.

EXAMPLE

a(3) = -9 because E[(tr(A^4))^3] = -9 for a random matrix A in USp(6).
