Index to sequences with linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (1,2,-2).

FORMULA

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

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

-1+Sum(1/2*(1+2*_alpha)*_alpha^(-1-n), _alpha=RootOf(-1+2*_Z^2))

a(n)=A016116(n+2)-1. [From R. J. Mathar, Jun 15 2009]

MAPLE

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

MATHEMATICA

a=0; b=1; lst={b}; Do[c=a+b-(b-a-1); AppendTo[lst, c]; a=b; b=c, {n, 5!}]; lst [From Vladimir Orlovsky (4vladimir(AT)gmail.com), Mar 23 2009]
