FORMULA

a(n) =(n+2)*a(n-1)-a(n-2) [with a(0)=1 and a(-1)=0] =A058798(n+1)-A058797(n+2) - Henry Bottomley (se16(AT)btinternet.com), Feb 28 2001

A signed version with a slightly different start may be obtained from the modular group Gamma: Let S = {{0, -1}, {1, 0}}; T = {{1, 1}, {0, 1}}; m(n)=T^n.S.m(m-1); v(0)={1,0}; v(n)=m(n).v(0); a(n)=v(n)[[1]]. [From Roger L. Bagula (rlbagulatftn(AT)yahoo.com), Nov 02 2008]

MATHEMATICA

Clear[S, T, M, v, n]; S = {{0, -1}, {1, 0}}; T = {{1, 1}, {0, 1}}; M[0] = T.S; M[n_] := M[n] = (MatrixPower[T, n].S).M[n - 1]; v[0] = {1, 0}; v[n_] := v[n] = M[n].v[0]; a = Table[v[n][[1]], {n, 0, 30}] [From Roger L. Bagula (rlbagulatftn(AT)yahoo.com), Nov 02 2008]
