FORMULA

a(n)=1+9*{(n^2-1)/9} , where the symbol {} means fractional part. [From Barbarel Tres Mil (barbarel3000(AT)yahoo.es), Dec 20 2009]

Cyclic with a period of nine. Note that (7, 9, 4, 1, 9, 1, 4, 9, 7) is palindromic.

a(n)=(1/108)*{113*(n mod 9)-79*[(n+1) mod 9]+53*[(n+2) mod 9]+77*[(n+3) mod 9]-7*[(n+4) mod 9]+17*[(n+5) mod 9]+41*[(n+6) mod 9]-43*[(n+7) mod 9]-19*[(n+8) mod 9]}, with n>=0 [From Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Aug 04 2009]

a(n)=3(1+cos(2n*pi/3)+ cos(4n*pi/3))+mod(3n^4+3n^6+4n^8,9) [From Ant King (mathstutoring(AT)ntlworld.com), Oct 07 2009]

GF: x (1+4x+9x^2+7x^3+7x^4+9x^5+4x^6+x^7+9x^8)/((1-x)(1+x+x^2)(1+x^3+x^6)) [From Ant King (mathstutoring(AT)ntlworld.com), Oct 20 2009]
