Comment from David W. Wilson: Numbers triangular, differences square.
To be precise, the differences are the squares of the powers of three with positive indices. Hence a(n+1)-a(n) = (A000244(n+1))^2=A001019(n+1). (Added by Ant King Jan 05 2011)
Partial sums of A001019. This is m-th triangular number, where m is partial sums of A000244. a(n)=A000217(A003462(n)). - Lekraj Beedassy, May 25 2004
With offset 0, binomial transform of A003951 . - Philippe DELEHAM, Jul 22 2005
Numbers in base 9: 1, 11, 111, 1111, 11111, 111111,1111111, etc. [From Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), Apr 26 2009]
Let A be the Hessenberg matrix of order n, defined by: A[1,j]=1, A[i,i]:=9, (i>1), A[i,i-1]=-1, and A[i,j]=0 otherwise. Then, for n>=1, a(n)=det(A). [From Milan Janjic, Feb 21 2010]
Let A be the Hessenberg matrix of order n, defined by: A[1,j]=1, A[i,i]:=10, (i>1), A[i,i-1]=-1, and A[i,j]=0 otherwise. Then, for n>=2, a(n-1)=(-1)^n*charpoly(A,1). [From Milan Janjic, Feb 21 2010]
Contribution from Hieronymus Fischer, Jan 30 2013: (Start)
Least index k such that A052382(k) >= 10^(n-1), for n>0.
Also index k such that A052382(k) = (10^n-1)/9, n>0.
A052382(a(n)) is the least zerofree number with n digits, for n>0.
For n>1: A052382(a(n)-1) is the greatest zerofree number with n-1 digits. (End)

a(n) = 9*a(n-1) + 1; a(1) = 1 . G.f.: x / ((1-x)*(1-9*x)) . - Philippe Deléham, Mar 13 2004
a(n) = 10*a(n-1) - 9*a(n-2). [Ant King, Jan 05 2011]
a(n) = floor(A000217(3^n)/4) - A033113(n-1). [Arkadiusz Wesolowski, Feb 14 2012]
E.g.f.: 1/6*sin(x)^3 = sum{n>0, a(n)*(-1)^(n+1)*x^(2*n+1)/(2*n+1)!}. [Vladimir Kruchinin, Sep 30 2012]
a(n) = A011540(A217094(n-1)) - A217094(n-1) + 2, n>0. - Hieronymus Fischer, Jan 30 2013
a(n) = 10^(n-1) + 2 - A217094(n-1). - Hieronymus Fischer, Jan 30 2013
a(n) = det(|v(i+2,j+1)|, 1 <= i,j <= n-1), where v(n,k) are central factorial numbers of the first kind with odd indices (A008956) and n>0. [Mircea Merca, Apr 06 2013]
