COMMENTS

Equals INVERT transform of (1, 3, 4, 4, 4,...). - Gary W. Adamson, Jan 03 2009

LINKS

Table of n, a(n) for n=0..29.

FORMULA

a(n) = sum(m=1..n, sum(i=0..n-m, C(m+i-1,m-1)*sum(j=0..m, C(j,n-3*m+2*j-i) *C(m,j)*2^(n-3*m+2*j-i)))), n>0, a(0)=1. - Vladimir Kruchinin, May 12 2011

G.f.: 1 + x/(G(0)-x) where G(k)=  1 - x*(2*k+2)/(1 - 1/(1 + (2*k+2)/G(k+1)));(continued fraction, 3-step). - Sergei N. Gladkovskii, Nov 17 2012

PROG

(Maxima) a(n):=sum(sum(binomial(m+i-1, m-1)*sum(binomial(j, n-3*m+2*j-i) *binomial(m, j) *2^(n-3*m+2*j-i), j, 0, m) , i, 0, n-m) , m, 1, n); - Vladimir Kruchinin, May 12 2011
