From Wesley Ivan Hurt, Apr 01 2016: (Start)
a(n) = 9*a(n-1) - 36*a(n-2) + 84*a(n-3) - 126*a(n-4) + 126*a(n-5) - 84*a(n-6) + 36*a(n-7) - 9*a(n-8) + a(n-9) for n > 8.
a(n) = A000290(n)^4 = A000290(A000290(A000290(n))).
a(n) = A000583(n)^2. (End)
From Amiram Eldar, Oct 08 2020: (Start)
Sum_{n>=1} 1/a(n) = zeta(8) = Pi^8/9450 (A013666).
Sum_{n>=1} (-1)^(n+1)/a(n) = 127*zeta(8)/128 = 127*Pi^8/1209600. (End)
