Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..1000

FORMULA

a(n)=2^(n+2)/3-(-1)^n/12-(2*n+1)/4.

G.f: (2*x^3 - x^2 - x + 1)/(-2*x^4 + 3*x^3 + x^2 - 3*x + 1).

a(n+2)=a(n+1)+2*a(n)+n, a(0)=0, a(1)=2.

a(n) = A001045(n+1) + A083579(n).

PROG

(MAGMA) [2^(n+2)/3-(-1)^n/12-(2*n+1)/4: n in [0..35]]; // Vincenzo Librandi, Jul 05 2011
