EXAMPLE

a(2) = 23 because the hafnian of

[d 2 3 5]

[2 d 2 3]

[3 2 d 2]

[5 3 2 d]

equals M_{1,2}*M_{3,4} + M_{1,3}*M_{2,4} + M_{1,4}*M_{2,3} = 2*2 + 3*3 + 5*2 = 23. Here d denotes the generic element on the main diagonal of the matrix from which the hafnian does not depend.

MATHEMATICA

M[i_, j_]:=Prime[Abs[i-j]]; a[n_]:=Sum[Product[M[Part[PermutationList[s, 2n], 2i-1], Part[PermutationList[s, 2n], 2i]], {i, n}], {s, SymmetricGroup[2n]//GroupElements}]/(n!*2^n); Array[a, 5, 0]
