COMMENTS

a(n+5) is the number of ways of throwing n with an unstated number of standard dice and so the row sum of A061676; for example a(9)=8 is the number of ways of throwing a total of 4: 4, 3+1, 2+2, 1+3, 2+1+1, 1+2+1, 1+1+2 and 1+1+1+1; if order did not distinguish partitions (i.e. the dice were indistinguishable) then this would produce A001402 instead. - Henry Bottomley, Apr 01 2002
Number of permutations (p(i)) [of the numbers 1 to n, presumably? - N. J. A. Sloane, Jan 22 2021] satisfying -k<=p(i)-i<=r, i=1..n-5, with k=1, r=5. - Vladimir Baltic, Jan 17 2005
a(n+5) is the number of compositions of n with no part greater than 6. - Vladimir Baltic, Jan 17 2005
Equivalently, for n>=0: a(n+6) is the number of binary strings with length n where at most 5 ones are consecutive, see fxtbook link below. - Joerg Arndt, Apr 08 2011

FORMULA

G.f.: x^5/(1 - x - x^2 - x^3 - x^4 - x^5 - x^6).
G.f.: Sum_{n >= 0} x^(n+5) * [ Product_{k = 1..n} (k + k*x + k*x^2 + k*x^3 + k*x^4 + x^5)/(1 + k*x + k*x^2 + k*x^3 + k*x^4 + k*x^5) ]. - Peter Bala, Jan 04 2015
Another form of the g.f.: f(z) = (z^5-z^6)/(1-2*z+z^7); then a(n) = Sum_((-1)^i*binomial(n-5-6*i,i)*2^(n-5-7*i), i=0..floor((n-5)/7))-Sum_((-1)^i*binomial(n-6-6*i,i)*2^(n-6-7*i), i=0..floor((n-6)/7)) with Sum_(alpha(i), i=m..n) = 0 for m>n. - Richard Choulet, Feb 22 2010
Sum_{k=0..5*n} a(k+b)*A063260(n,k) = a(6*n+b), b>=0.
a(n) = 2*a(n-1)-a(n-7). - Vincenzo Librandi, Dec 19 2010
