Hanna’s A363559 Prime-Index Formula

Abstract

Hanna’s A363559 prime-index coefficient formula.

Definition 1.1 (Hanna’s A363559 conjecture).

Formalization. D5/S1/Recurrence/HannaBilateral/OeisA363559Prime.claim (✓ std3).

Citation. Paul D. Hanna (2023). OEIS A363558, A363559, A363561 and A363569: bilateral power sums. URL: https://oeis.org/A363558.

Commentary.

a(p) = p*3^(p-1) + 9^p for primes p > 3 (conjecture). Source: OEIS A363559, FORMULA field (an unpaginated entry). Indices are natural numbers; values and numeric expressions on both sides are complex. The displayed hypotheses retain the source range.

Theorem 1.2 (The A363559 prime-index formula).

Proof. Machine-checked in Lean as D5/S1/Recurrence/HannaBilateral/OeisA363559Prime.result (✓ std3). ∎

Commentary.

Apply the complex-parameter prime coefficient identity and simplify the indicated parameter powers.
