Squares in (2^2-1)...(n^2-1) and p-adic valuation

preprint2009arXivOpen access

Abstract

In this paper, we determine all the squares in the sequence {∏k=2n(k2−1)}n=2∞\{\prod_{k=2}^n(k^2-1)\}_{n=2}^\infty . From this, one deduces that there are infinitely many squares in this sequence. We also give a formula for the pp-adic valuation of the terms in this sequence.
