COMMENTS

A Lam{\'e} sequence of higher order.

For n>=1, a(n) = number of compositions of n in which each part is >=9. [From Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Jun 28 2010]

FORMULA

G.f.: (x-1)/(x-1+x^9). - Alois P. Heinz, Aug 04 2008

For positive integers n and k such that k <= n <= 9*k, and 8 devides n-k, define c(n,k) = binomial(k,(n-k)/8), and c(n,k) = 0, otherwise. Then, for n>= 1,  a(n+9) = sum(c(n,k), k=1..n). - Milan Janjic, Dec 09 2011

MAPLE

f := proc(r) local t1, i; t1 := []; for i from 1 to r do t1 := [op(t1), 0]; od: for i from 1 to r+1 do t1 := [op(t1), 1]; od: for i from 2*r+2 to 50 do t1 := [op(t1), t1[i-1]+t1[i-1-r]]; od: t1; end; # set r = order

a:= n-> (Matrix(9, (i, j)-> if (i=j-1) then 1 elif j=1 then [1, 0$7, 1][i] else 0 fi)^n)[9, 9]: seq (a(n), n=0..55); # Alois P. Heinz, Aug 04 2008
