COMMENTS

Also number of meaningful compositions of the k-th order of the differential operations and Gateaux directional derivative on the space R^10. - Branko Malesevic and Ivana Jovovic (ivana121(AT)EUnet.yu), Jun 20 2007

Also (starting 6,11,...) the number of zig-zag paths from top to bottom of a rectangle of width 12, whose color is that of the top right corner. [From Joseph Myers (jsm(AT)polyomino.org.uk), Dec 23 2008]

FORMULA

f(k+6)=f(k+5)+5*f(k+4)-4*f(k+3)-6*f(k+2)+3*f(k+1)+f(k)

MAPLE

NUM := proc(k :: integer) local i, j, n, Fun, Identity, v, A; n:=11; # <- DIMENSION Fun:=(i, j)->piecewise(((j=i+1) or (i+j=n+1)), 1, 0); Identity:=(i, j)->piecewise(i=j, 1, 0); v:=matrix(1, n, 1); A:=piecewise(k>1, (matrix(n, n, Fun))^(k-1), k=1, matrix(n, n, Identity)); return(evalm(v&*A&*transpose(v))[1, 1]); end:
