COMMENTS

Inverse binomial transform of (1,1,5,5,25,25,.....).

The absolute values are the constant terms of the reduction by x^2->x+1 of the polynomial p(n,x) given for d=sqrt(x+1) by p(n,x)=((x+d)^n-(x-d)^n)/(2d), for n>=1.  The coefficient of x under this reduction is given by A103435.  See A192232 for a discussion of reduction.  [From Clark Kimberling, Jun 29 2011]

FORMULA

G.f.: (1+2*x)/((1+(1+sqrt(5))*x)(1+(1-sqrt(5))*x)).

E.g.f.: exp(-x)*(cosh(sqrt(5)*x)+sinh(sqrt(5)*x)/sqrt(5)).

a(n)=(sqrt(5)-1)^n*(sqrt(5)/10+1/2)+(-sqrt(5)-1)^n*(1/2-sqrt(5)/10).
