Continued fraction for sqrt(3).
Also coefficient of the highest power of q in the expansion of the polynomial nu(n) defined by: nu(0)=1, nu(1)=b and for n>=2, nu(n)=b*nu(n-1)+lambda*(n-1)_q*nu(n-2) with (b,lambda)=(1,1), where (n)_q=(1+q+...+q^(n-1)) and q is a root of unity. - Y. Kelly Itakura (yitkr(AT)mta.ca), Aug 21 2002
nu(0)=1 nu(1)=1; nu(2)=2; nu(3)=3+q; nu(4)=5+3q+2q^2; nu(5)=8+7q+6q^2+4q^3+q^4; nu(6)=13+15q+16q^2+14q^3+11q^4+5q^5+2q^6.

a(n) = denominators of arithmetic means of the first n positive integers for n >= 1.
See A026741(n+1) or A145051(n) - denominators of arithmetic means of the first n positive integers. (End)
Contribution from R. J. Mathar, Feb 16 2011: (Start)
This is a prototype of multiplicative sequences defined by a(p^e)=1 for
odd primes p, and a(2^e)=c with some constant c, here c=2.
They have Dirichlet generating functions (1+(c-1)/2^s)*zeta(s).
Examples are A153284, A176040 (c=3), A040005 (c=4), A021070, A176260 (c=5),
A040011, A176355 (c=6), A176415 (c=7), A040019, A021059 (c=8), A040029 (c=10), A040041 (c=12). (End)
a(n) = p(-1) where p(x) is the unique degree-n polynomial such that p(k) = A000325(k) for k = 0, 1, ..., n. - Michael Somos, May 12 2012

FORMULA

Multiplicative with a(p^e) = 2 if p even; 1 if p odd. - David W. Wilson, Aug 01, 2001.
G.f.: (1 + x + x^2) / (1 - x^2). E.g.f.: (3*exp(x)-2*exp(0)+exp(-x))/2. - Paul Barry, Apr 27 2003
a(n)=(3-2*0^n +(-1)^n)/2. a(-n)=a(n). a(2n+1)=1, a(2n)=2, n nonzero.
a(n)=sum{k=0..n, F(n-k+1)*(-2+(1+(-1)^k)/2+C(2, k)+0^k)}; - Paul Barry, Jun 22 2007
Row sums of triangle A133566 - Gary W. Adamson, Sep 16 2007
a(n)=3/2+(1/2)*(-1)^n-[C(2*n,n) mod 2], with n>=0 - Paolo P. Lava, Nov 27 2007
