COMMENT

Comment from Joerg Arndt (arndt(AT)jjj.de), Sep 02 2008: (Start) It seems that 2a(n) gives the degree of the minimal polynomial of (k_n)^2 where k_n is the n-th singular value, i.e. K(sqrt(1-k_n^2)/K(k_n)==sqrt(n) (and K is the elliptic function of the first kind: K(x) := hypergeom([1/2,1/2],[1], x^2).
Also, when setting K3(x)=hypergeom([1/3,2/3],[1], x^3) and solving for x such that K3((1-x^3)^(1/3))/K3(x)==sqrt(n), then the degree of the minimal polynomial of x^3 is every third term of this sequence, or so it seems. (End)
