Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (3,1,-2).

Formula

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

a(n) = 3*a(n-1) + a(n-2) - 2*a(n-3).

a(n) = Sum_{alpha=RootOf(1-3*z-z^2+2*z^3)} (1/229)*(66 +15*alpha -28*alpha^2)*alpha^(-1-n).

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