FORMULA

a(n)=binomial(n+3, 4)*binomial(n+3, 2)

G.f.: x*(6+8*x+x^2)/(1-x)^7.

E.g.f. with offset 3: exp(x)*(6*(x^3)/3! + 26*(x^4)/4! +35*(x^5)/5! + 15*(x^6)/6!). See row k=3 of A112486 for the coefficients [6, 26, 35, 15].

a(n)= (f(n+2, 3)/6!)*sum(A112486(3, m)*f(6, 3-m)*f(n-1, m), m=0..min(3, n)), with the falling factorials notation f(n, m):=n*(n-1)*...*(n-(m-1)).

a(n) = A000217 * n! / ( 4! * (n-4)! ) [for n>4 and A000217 = The Triangle Numbers], a(n) = ((n+4)! / n! ) ^2 / ( (n+2) * (n+1) * 2*4!), a(n) = (n-0)^2 * (n-1)^2 * (n-2) * (n-3) / (2*4!). - Jason Lang, Oct 03 2006

a(n)=numbperm (n,2)*numbperm (n,4)/48, n>=4 - Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), Apr 26 2007

a(n)=15*binomial(n+5,6)-10*binomial(n+4,5)+binomial(n+3,4). E.g.f. with offset 4: exp(x)*(1/4*x^4+1/6*x^5+1/48*x^6) - Miklos Kristof (kristmikl(AT)freemail.hu), Nov 04 2007

a(n) = n*(n+1)(n+2)^2*(n+3)^2/48 [From Jeremy Galvagni (jgalvagni(AT)mohawkteachers.org), Mar 03 2009]

MAPLE

seq(numbperm (n, 2)*numbperm (n, 4)/48, n=4..33); - Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), Apr 26 2007

a:=n->sum(sum(binomial(j, 1)*binomial(k, 3), j=0..n), k=0..n): seq(a(n), n=3..32); - Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), Jun 02 2007

seq(15*binomial(n+2, 6)-10*binomial(n+1, 5)+binomial(n, 4), n=4..30); - Miklos Kristof (kristmikl(AT)freemail.hu), Nov 04 2007

A001303:=-(6+8*z+z**2)/(z-1)**7; [Conjectured by S. Plouffe in his 1992 dissertation.]
