Comments

a(n) is the result of taking five consecutive numbers starting at n-2, then adding the products of the first and the last and of the second with the fourth and finally adding the middle term. That is, a(n) = (n^2-4) + (n^2-1) + n. - J. M. Bergot, Mar 06 2018

Formula

A100035(a(n)) = 4 for n>3;

a(n) = A014105(n) - 5 = A084849(n) - 6 = A100041(n) + 2.

a(n) = 2*a(n-1)-a(n-2)+4; a(0)=-5, a(1)=-2. - Vincenzo Librandi, Dec 26 2010

G.f.: (-5 + 13*x - 4*x^2)/(1 - x)^3. - Arkadiusz Wesolowski, Dec 25 2011
