COMMENTS

a(n) = A167808(3*n-1) for n>0. [From Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Nov 12 2009]

If one deletes the leading 0 in A084326, takes the inverse binomial transform, and adds a(0)=1 in front, one obtains this sequence here. [From Al Hakanson (hawkuu(AT)gmail.com), May 02 2009]

FORMULA

a(n) = Fibonacci(3n-1) = ( (1+sqrt(5))*(2-sqrt(5))^n - (1-sqrt(5))*(2+sqrt(5))^n )/ (2*sqrt(5)).

O.g.f.: (1-3*x)/(1-4*x-x^2). - Len Smiley (smiley(AT)math.uaa.alaska.edu), Dec 09 2001

a(n)=Sum_{k, 0<=k<=n}3^k*A055830(n,k) . - Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Oct 18 2006

a(n) = upper left term in the 2 X 2 matrix [1,2; 2,3]^n - Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), Mar 02 2008

[a(n), A001076(n)] = [1,4; 1,3]^n * [1,0] - Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), Mar 21 2008

a(n)= Fibonacci(3n+1) mod Fibonacci(3n), n>0

a(n)= (A000032(3*n)-Fibonacci(3*n))/2 = (A014448(n)-A014445(n)/2.

MAPLE

with(combinat): a:=n->fibonacci(n, 4)-3*fibonacci(n-1, 4): seq(a(n), n=1..23); - Zerinvary Lajos (zerinvarylajos(AT)yahoo.com), Apr 04 2008
