COMMENTS

a(1)=a(2) = 1 gives A088305 i.e. fibonacci numbers with even indices. This can be called 'fake Fibonacci sequence'. 4 = 3+1, 11 = 8+3, 29 = 21+8, 76 = 55+21, etc. a(n) = F(2n-2) + F(2n-4).

Except for the initial terms, this is the same as the bisection of the Lucas sequence (A002878). - Frank Adams-Watters (FrankTAW(AT)Netscape.net), Jul 17 2006

FORMULA

a(n) = F(2n-2) + F(2n-4), where F(k) is k-th Fibonacci number, n >2.

MAPLE

a[1]:=1: a[2]:=2: for n from 2 to 33 do a[n+1]:=sum((n-r)*a[r+1], r=0..n-1) od: seq(a[n], n=1..33); (Deutsch)

MATHEMATICA
