COMMENTS

Form the graph with matrix A=[1,1,1,1;1,0,0,0;1,0,0,0;1,0,0,1]. Then A052528 counts closed walks of length n at the degree 5 vertex. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Oct 02 2004

Equals the INVERT transform of (1, 3, 1, 1, 1,...). [From Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), Apr 27 2009]

Index to sequences with linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (2,2,-2).

FORMULA

G.f.: -(-1+x)/(1-2*x-2*x^2+2*x^3)

Recurrence: {a(1)=1, a(0)=1, a(2)=4, 2*a(n)-2*a(n+1)-2*a(n+2)+a(n+3)=0}

Sum(-1/37*(-5+9*_alpha^2-12*_alpha)*_alpha^(-1-n), _alpha=RootOf(2*_Z^3-2*_Z^2-2*_Z+1))

MAPLE

spec := [S, {S=Sequence(Prod(Z, Union(Z, Z, Sequence(Z))))}, unlabeled]: seq(combstruct[count](spec, size=n), n=0..20);

CROSSREFS
