COMMENT

p divides a(p-1) for prime p>5. p divides a((p-1)/2) for prime p>5. p^2 divides a((p-1)/2) for prime p=31,37. - Alexander Adamchuk (alex(AT)kolmogorov.com), Jul 07 2006

p^2 divides a(p-1) for prime p = 37. - Alexander Adamchuk (alex(AT)kolmogorov.com), Nov 07 2006

Denominators are A007480. See the W. Lang link under A103345 for the rationals and more.

The limit of the rationals Zeta(n):=Sum[1/k^4,{k,1,n}] for n->infinity is (Pi^4)/90 which is approximately 1.082323234.
