COMMENTS

a(n-2)=(((-I)^(n-2))/2)*diff(S(n,x),x$2)|_{x=I}, n>=2. Second derivative of Chebyshev S-polynomials evaluated at x=I (imaginary unit) multiplied by ((-I)^(n-2))/2. See A049310 for the S-polynomials. W. Lang, Apr 04 2007.

a(n)=number of weak compositions of n in which exactly 3 part are 0 and all other parts are either 1 or 2. [From Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Jun 28 2010]

FORMULA

G.f.: ( 1 - x - x^2 )^-3.

a(n) = ((5*n+16)*(n+1)*F(n+2)+(5*n+17)*(n+2)*F(n+1))/50, F(n)=A000045(n). - Wolfdieter Lang, Apr 12 2000

For n>2, a(n-2)= sum(i+j+k=n, F(i)*F(j)*F(k)). - Benoit Cloitre, Nov 01 2002

a(n) = F''(n+2, 1)/2, i.e. 1/2 times the 2nd derivative of the (n+2)th Fibonacci polynomial evaluated at 1. - T. D. Noe, Jan 18 2006

a(n)=sum{k=0..n, C(k,n-k)*C(k+2,2)}; - Paul Barry, Apr 13 2008
