Abstract

Symmetric coefficient pairs leave exactly the odd diagonal contribution.

Definition 1.1 (Rational summands).

Formalization. D5/S1/Recurrence/Algebraic/HannaGaussianSquareParity.summand (✓ std3).

Commentary.

OEIS A323689, NAME (unpaginated): “G.f.: Sum_{n>=0} (x^n + i)^n / (1 + i*x^n)^(n+1), in which the constant term is taken to be 1.” Complex.I is the imaginary unit and X is the formal series variable. The inverse has unit constant denominator.

OEIS A323689, NAME (unpaginated): “G.f.: Sum_{n>=0} (x^n + i)^n / (1 + i*x^n)^(n+1), in which the constant term is taken to be 1.” Degree zero is 1. At positive degree N, only indices 1 through N contribute.

Commentary.

OEIS A323689, COMMENTS and FORMULA (unpaginated): “Odd terms occur only at n = k^2 for k >= 0 (conjecture); a(n^2) = 1 (mod 2) for n >= 0.” The index N is natural, z is an ordinary integer embedded in the complex numbers, and degree zero is included.

Commentary.

At positive degree, the exponent equation is symmetric in the two indices and off-diagonal pairs are even integers. A diagonal term is present exactly when N = r^2, and its weight is odd. The constant coefficient is 1.
