COMMENTS

a(n) = sum of n-th row in triangle A100851. - Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Nov 20 2004

FORMULA

a(n)= A071951(n+2, 2) = 9*(2*3)^(n-1) - (2*1)^(n-1) = (2^(n-1))*(3^(n+1)-1), n>=0. - Wolfdieter Lang, Nov 07 2003

G.f.: 1/((1-2*x)*(1-6*x)). E.g.f.: (-exp(2*x)+3*exp(6*x))/2.

a(n) = (6^(n+1)-2^(n+1))/4 - Lambert Klasen (lambert.klasen(AT)gmx.net), Feb 05 2005

a(n)^2=A144843(n+1). [From Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Nov 26 2008]

a(n-1)= ((4+sqrt4)^n-(4-sqrt4)^n)/4 in Fibonacci form. [From Al Hakanson (hawkuu(AT)gmail.com), Dec 31 2008]
