A095797 T(n,k) for k=0..3 is the k-th component of the vector obtained by multiplying the n-th power of the 4x4 matrix (1,1,1,1; 7,3,1,0; 12,2,0,0; 6,0,0,0) with the vector (1,1,1,1). 0

COMMENTS

(n+1)-th set of 4 terms = leftmost finite differences of sequences generated from 3rd degree polynomials having n-th row coefficients, (given n = 1,2,3...) For example, first row is (1 1 1 1) with a corresponding polynomial x^3 + x^2 + x + 1. (f(x),x = 1,2,3...) = 4, 15, 40, 85, 156...Leftmost term of the sequence = 4, with finite difference rows: 11, 25, 45, 71...; 14, 20, 26, 32...; and 6, 6, 6, 6. Thus leftmost terms of the sequence 4, 15, 40...and the finite difference rows are (4 11 14 6) which is the second row.

The matrix generator is discussed in A028246, while 2nd degree polynomial examples are A091140, A091141 and A091140. The first degree case is A095795.

a(n) = +4*a(n-4) +24*a(n-8) -30*a(n-12) -12*a(n-16).

EXAMPLE

3rd set of 4 terms = (35, 75, 70, 24) since M^2 * [1 1 1 1] = [35 75 70 24].
