COMMENTS

Companion sequence A121621 is Re(2 + 3i)^n.

LINKS

Table of n, a(n) for n=0..24.

Index to sequences with linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (6,-13).

FORMULA

a(n) = Re(3 + 2i)^n.

a(n) = 6*a(n-1) - 13*a(n-2).

a(n)=(1/2)*(3-2*I)^n+(1/2)*(3+2*I)^n, with n>=0 and I=sqrt(-1) - Paolo P. Lava, Jun 25 2008

G.f. ( 1-3*x ) / ( 1-6*x+13*x^2 ). - R. J. Mathar, Aug 12 2012

EXAMPLE

a(5) = -597 since (3 + 2i)^5 = (-597 + 122i).

a(5) = -597 = 6*(-119) - 13*(-9) = 6*a(5) -13*a(4).
