These numbers have been studied from different aspects for some $a$'s. These numbers can also be considered as variations of the well known star numbers of the form $6n(n-1) + 1$. We also give closed form expressions of the Sylvester number (genus) for the triple of the $2$-step star numbers.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-09-23T08:01:41.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "frobenius number", "step star numbers", "closed form expressions", "sylvester number", "variations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
