COMMENTS

Contribution from Gary W. Adamson, Sep 06 2008: (Start)

Equals right border of triangle A143970.

Starting (1, 11, 31, 161,...) = row sums of triangle A143970 and INVERT transform of (1, 10, 10, 10,...). (End)

Binomial transform of [1, 0, 10, 0, 100, 0, 1000, 0, 10000, 0, ...]=: powers of 10 (A011557) with interpolated zeros . Inverse binomial transform of A084132 . [From Philippe DELEHAM, Dec 02 2008]

a(n) is the number of compositions of n when there are 1 type of 1 and 10 types of other natural numbers. [From Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Aug 13 2010]

FORMULA

a(n)=(1+sqrt(10))^n/2+(1-sqrt(10))^n/2; G.f.: (1-x)/(1-2*x-9*x^2); E.g.f.: exp(x)*cosh(sqrt(10)*x). - Paul Barry, May 16 2003

a(n)=Sum_{k, 0<=k<=n}A098158(n,k)*10^(n-k). - Philippe DELEHAM, Dec 26 2007

If p[1]=1, and p[i]=10,(i>1), and if A is Hessenberg matrix of order n defined by: A[i,j]=p[j-i+1], (i<=j), A [i,j]=-1, (i=j+1), and A[i,j]=0 otherwise. Then, for n>=1, a(n)=det A. [From Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Apr 29 2010]
