FORMULA
|
a(n) = Sum_{m=0..n} (-1)^m*(n-m)!*A061702(n, m), n>2.
Let f(n) = F(n-1) + F(n+1) + 2, where F(n) is the n-th Fibonacci number.
Then, for n>=7, we have the recursion:
a(n) = (-1)^n*(4*n+f(n)) + (n/(n-1))*((n+1)*a(n-1) + 2*(-1)^n*f(n-1)) - ((2*n)/(n-2))*((n-3)*a(n-2) + (-1)^n*f(n-2)) + (n/(n-3))*((n-5)*a(n-3) + 2*(-1)^(n-1)*f(n-3)) + (n/(n-4))*(a(n-4) + (-1)^(n-1)*f(n-4)).
This formula (in an equivalent form) is due to K. Yamamoto. (End)

EXAMPLE

a(5) = 2: [ 1 2 3 4 5 ] -> [ 3 4 5 1 2 ] or [ 4 5 1 2 3 ].
Let n=7. Then, using the previous values of a(n), we have a(7) = -(4*7+31) + (7/6)*(8*20-2*20) - (14/5)*(4*2-13) + (7/4)*(2*1+2*9) + (7/3)*6 = -59+140+14+35+14 = 144. - Vladimir Shevelev, Apr 17 2011
