COMMENTS

Diagonal sums of triangle using cumulative sums of odd-indexed rows of Pascal's triangle (cf. A020988). - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), May 18 2003

FORMULA

a(0)=1, a(1)=2, a(2)=5, a(3)=11, a(n)=2*a(n-1)+a(n-2)-a(n-3)-a(n-4) for n>3 . - Philippe DELEHAM (kolotoko(AT)wanadoo.fr), Oct 25 2006

a(n) = term (4,1) in the 4x4 matrix [1,1,0,0; 2,0,1,0; 1,0,0,0; 1,0,0,1]^(n+1). - Alois P. Heinz (heinz(AT)hs-heilbronn.de), Jul 24 2008

MAPLE

a := n -> (Matrix([[1, 1, 0, 0], [2, 0, 1, 0], [1, 0, 0, 0], [1, 0, 0, 1]])^(n+1))[4, 1]; seq (a(n), n=0..50); - Alois P. Heinz (heinz(AT)hs-heilbronn.de), Jul 24 2008
