Dear Seq Fans,

In new sequence A292911 (Numbers n such that 
A291897(n) is divisible by (2*n-1)^3) I did the second
conjecture that for n>=2 the numbers {2*a(n)-1} are
consecutive primes of the form 4*k+1 (cf. A002144).
But by n=553 Peter Moses disproved this conjecture.
2*553-1 is the smallest number which is the product
of three distinct (4k+1)-primes.  
But I continue to believe that for every (4k+1)-prime
p, (p+1)/2 is a number n such that A291897(n) is divisible by 
(2*n-1)^3), i.e., {2A292911(n)-1} contains all such primes
[corrected 2-nd conjecture]
(maybe, it contains products of odd number of
distinct such primes).
It still seems to me that to prove this 2-nd conjecture
is a very difficult problem. However, I think that it
is highly interesting since does more precise
the conjecture in A291897. 

Best regards,
Vladimir

Yes, Peter Luschny simplified one of my
formula in A291897 (see there), using
a property of A002425, so you are
right. Thank you very much for the
verification of my conjecture up to
5000.

Best regards,
Vladimir

Are the log2 of the denominators of Euler(2n-1,n) the sequence https://oeis.org/A001511: The ruler function?

Dear SeqFans,

Now I have just submitted a new sequence
A291897 "Numerator of Euler(2n-1,n)".
I proved that
a(n)=2(-1)^n*A006519(2n)*(1^(2n-1) - 2^(2n-1)+
...+(-1)^n*(n-1)^(2n-1)) + A002425(n).
The sequence begins 1, 9, 125, 32977,...
My observation is about an interesting property:
a(n) is divisible by (2*n-1)^2 (conjecture).
Note that sometimes, maybe, for prime n of the form 4*k+1, a(n) is divisible by (2n-1)^3 ( for example, for  n=1,5,13,17,...).
Can anyone analyze this property?

Best regards,
Vladimir
