Harry J. Smith, Table of n, a(n) for n=1,...,1000
Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (6, -15, 20, -15, 6, -1).
FORMULA
a(n) = n(6n^4 + 10n^2 - 1)/15. - Dean Hickerson, Jun 06 2001
G.f.: x*(1+x)^2*(1+10*x+x^2)/(1-x)^6. - Colin Barker, Apr 20 2012
EXAMPLE
a(3) = 115 = 1 + 16 + 81 + 16 + 1
