COMMENT

The denominators are given by A164657.

Rationals (partial sums) Theta(5,n) := sum(1/(2*j-1)^5,j=1..n) (in lowest terms). The limit of these rationals is Theta(5)= (1-1/2^5)*Zeta(5) approximately 1.004523763 (Zeta(n) is the Euler, Riemann Zeta function).

This is a member of the k-family of rational sequences Theta(k,n):=sum(1/(2*j-1)^k,j=1..n), k>=1, which includes A025550/A025547 (but only for the first 38 entries), A120268/A128492, A164655(n)/A128507(n) (the denominators may depart for higher n values), A120269/A128493, a(n)/A164657, for k=1..5.
