COMMENTS

a(n) is also the coefficient of x^(n-1) in the bivariate Fibonacci polynomials F(n)(x,y)=xF(n-1)(x,y)+yF(n-2)(x,y),F(0)(x,y)=0,F(1)(x,y)=1, when we write 13x for x and -36x^2 for y. - Mario Catalani (mario.catalani(AT)unito.it), Dec 09 2002

FORMULA

G.f.: x/((1-4*x)*(1-9*x)). a(n)=13*a(n-1)-36*a(n-2).

MATHEMATICA
