FORMULA
| a_n = ((2n+1)/5)F(2n+2)-((n-4)/5)F(2n+1), where the F(n)'s are the Fibonacci numbers, F(0)=0, F(1)=1
a(n)=sum(k*binom(n+k-1, 2k-2), k=1..n+1) - Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Jun 11 2003
Contribution from Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Oct 13 2009: (Start)
G.f.: (1-x)^3/(1-3x+x^2)^2.
a(n)=sum{k=0..n, C(n+k,2k)(k+1)}. (End)
a(n)= 6*a(n-1) -11*a(n-2) +6*a(n-3) -a(n-4). [R. J. Mathar, (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Feb 06 2010]
a(n)=sum{k=0..n, (F(2k)+0^k)*F(2n-2k+1)}. [From Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Jun 23 2010]
