Index to sequences with linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (3,1,-2).

FORMULA

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

Recurrence: {a(0)=1, a(1)=2, a(2)=7, 2*a(n)-a(n+1)-3*a(n+2)+a(n+3)=0}

Sum(-1/229*(-43-41*_alpha+46*_alpha^2)*_alpha^(-1-n), _alpha=RootOf(1-3*_Z-_Z^2+2*_Z^3))

a(n) = center term in M^n * [1 1 1] where M = Hosoya's triangle considered as an upper triangular 3 X 3 matrix: [2 1 2 / 1 1 0 / 1 0 0]. E.g. a(4) = 66 since M^4 * [1 1 1] = [139 66 45]. The analogous procedure using M^n * [1 0 0] generates A100058. - Gary W. Adamson (qntmpkt(AT)yahoo.com), Oct 31 2004

MAPLE

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