COMMENTS

Let A be the Hessenberg matrix of order n, defined by: A[1,j]=1, A[i,i]:=-1, A[i,i-1]=-1, and A[i,j]=0 otherwise. Then, for n>=1, a(n-1)=charpoly(A,2). [From Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Jan 26 2010]

FORMULA

Row sums of Lucas convolution triangle A060922.

Inverse binomial transform of A003947. - Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Jul 23 2005

a(n)=sum(A060922(n, m), m=0..n) = sum(a(j-1)*A000204(n-j+1), j=1..n)+A000204(n+1).

a(n)=(5*3^n-(-1)^n)/4.

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

a(2n) = 3a(2n-1) - 1; a(2n+1) = 3a(2n) + 1. - Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Jul 23 2005

Binomial transform is A003947. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), May 19 2003
