G. C. Greubel, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..1000
Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (1,-1,1).
FORMULA
From R. J. Mathar, Apr 20 2010: (Start)
a(n) = a(n-1) - a(n-2) + a(n-3).
G.f.: ( -1-6*x-18*x^2 ) / ( (x-1)*(1+x^2) ). (End)
a(n) = 25 - a(n-2), n>=2. - Vincenzo Librandi, Feb 08 2011
From G. C. Greubel, Mar 20 2016: (Start)
a(n) = a(n-4).
E.g.f.: (1/2)*(25*exp(x) - 23*cos(x) - 11*sin(x)). (End)
