COMMENTS

Sums of consecutive pairs yield A083178.

Number of walks of length n+1 between two vertices at distance 2 in the cycle graph C_5. In general a(n,m)=2^n/m*Sum(k,0,m-1,Cos(4Pi*k/m)Cos(2Pi*k/m)^n) is the number of walks of length n between two vertices at distance 2 in the cycle graph C_m. - Herbert Kociemba (kociemba(AT)t-online.de), May 31 2004

FORMULA

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

Binomial transform is A007598. The unsigned sequence has G.f. x/((1-2x)(1+x-x^2)) with a(n)=2*2^n/5-(-1)^n*A000032(n)/5. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Apr 17 2004

a(n)=sum{k=0..n, (-1)^(n-k)C(n, k)Fib(k)^2 }; a(n)=((1/2-sqrt(5)/2)^n+(1/2+sqrt(5)/2)^n-2(-2)^n)/5; a(n)=A000032(n)/5-2(-2)^n/5. - Paul Barry (pbarry(AT)wit.ie), Apr 17 2004

a(n)=2^n/5*Sum(k, 0, 4, Cos(4Pi*k/5)Cos(2Pi*k/5)^n) - Herbert Kociemba (kociemba(AT)t-online.de), May 31 2004

a(n)=-a(n-1)+3a(n-2)+2a(n-3). - Paul Curtz (bpcrtz(AT)free.fr), Mar 09 2008
