COMMENTS

From Johannes W. Meijer, Aug 21 2011: (Start)

An appropriate name for this sequence is Fibonacci double factorial, cf. A006882.

In Park’s article "A new proof of the Routh-Hurwitz stability criterion using the second method of Liapunov" in appendix 2 a number triangle T(n,k) with T(n,n) = a(n+1), n>=0, appears if we assume that b(r) = fibonacci(r); see A103631 and A194005. (End)

The original name of this sequence was: A000045 inside a second linear differential equation recursion: b(n) = b(n-1) + b(n-2) --> Binet(n) of A000045 a(n) = b(n)*a(n-2)/(n*(n-1)).

Bagula also stated that using the solutions to these second order differential equations Markov/ linear recursions can be encoded as analog functions.

FORMULA

a(n) = n!*a1(n) with a1(n) = b(n)*a1(n-2)/(n*(n-1)), a1(0) = 1, a1(1) = 1; b(n) = b(n-1) + b(n-2), b(0) = 0, b(1) = 1 and b(n) = F(n) with F(n) = A000045(n).

From Johannes W. Meijer, Aug 21 2011: (Start)

a(2*n-1) = product(F(2*i-1), i =1..n) and a(2*n) = product(F(2*i), i=1..n)

a(n) = F(n)*a(n-2)

a(2*n) = A194157(n) and a(2*n-1) = A194158(n) (End)
