Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (1,1,-1).

Formula

a(n odd) = 2*n, a(n even) = 2*n+4.

a(n) = 2(n+1)+2(-1)^n. - Paul Barry, Feb 17 2008

a(n) -a(n-4) = 8. - Paul Curtz, Apr 19 2011

a(n) = +1*a(n-1) +1*a(n-2) -1*a(n-3). - Joerg Arndt, Apr 22 2011

G.f.: 2*x*(1+3*x-2*x^2)/((1-x)^2*(1+x)). - Colin Barker, Jan 23 2012

a(n) = 2*A014681(n+1). - R. J. Mathar, Nov 27 2015
