Generalized Fibonacci sequence.

Sqrt(26) = 10/2 + 10/101 + 10/(101*10301) + 10/(10301*1050601) + ... - Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), Jun 13 2008

For positive n, a(n) equals the permanent of the nXn tridiagonal matrix with 10's along the main diagonal and 1's along the superdiagonal and the subdiagonal. [From John M. Campbell, Jul 08 2011]

FORMULA

a(n) = 10*a(n-1) + a(n-2), n>=1; a(-1):=0, a(0)=1.

G.f.: 1/(1-10*x-x^2).

a(n) = S(n, 10*I)*(-I)^n with I^2:=-1 and S(n, x)=U(n, x/2) Chebyshev's polynomials of the second kind. See A049310.

a(n) = (ap^(n+1) - am^(n+1))/(ap-am) with ap:= 5 + sqrt(26), am:= 5 - sqrt(26)=-1/ap.

a(n)=F(n, 10), the n-th Fibonacci polynomial evaluated at x=10. - T. D. Noe (noe(AT)sspectra.com), Jan 19 2006

a(n) = ((5+Sqrt[26])^n-(5-Sqrt[26])^n)/(2Sqrt[26]); a(n) = Sum[Binomial[n-1-i,i]*10^{n-1-2i}, {i,0,Floor[(n-1)/2]}] - Sergio Falcon (sfalcon(AT)dma.ulpgc.es), Sep 24 2007
