FORMULA
a(n) = 6*A034833(n) = (7*n-1)*(!^7), n >= 1, a(0) := 1.
a(n) = Product_{k=1..n} (7*k - 1). a(0) = 1; a(n) = (7*n - 1)*a(n-1) for n > 0. - Klaus Brockhaus, Nov 10 2008
G.f.: 1/(1-6*x/(1-7*x/(1-13*x/(1-14*x/(1-20*x/(1-21*x/(1-27*x/(1-28*x/(1-...(continued fraction). - Philippe Deléham, Jan 08 2012
a(n) = (-1)^n*Sum_{k=0..n} 7^k*s(n+1,n+1-k), where s(n,k) are the Stirling numbers of the first kind, A048994. - Mircea Merca, May 03 2012
a(n) = 7^n * Gamma(n+6/7) / Gamma(6/7). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jan 28 2015
E.g.f.: (1-7*x)^(-6/7). - Vaclav Kotesovec, Jan 28 2015
From Nikolaos Pantelidis, Dec 19 2020: (Start)
G.f.: 1/G(0) where G(k) = 1 - (14*k+6)*x - 7*(k+1)*(7*k+6)*x^2/G(k+1); (continued fraction).
which starts as 1/(1-6*x-42*x^2/(1-20*x-182*x^2/(1-34*x-420*x^2/(1-48*x-756*x^2/(1-62*x-1190*x^2/(1-... )))))) (Jacobi continued fraction).
G.f.: 1/Q(0) where Q(k) = 1 - (7*k+6)*x/(1 - (7*k+7)*x/Q(k+1) ); (continued fraction). (End)
Sum_{n>=0} 1/a(n) = 1 + (e/7)^(1/7)*(Gamma(6/7) - Gamma(6/7, 1/7)). - Amiram Eldar, Dec 19 2022
