Contribution from Reinhard Zumkeller (reinhard.zumkeller(AT)gmail.com), Nov 12 2009: (Start)

Denominator of x(n)=x(n-1)+x(n-2), x(0)=0, x(1)=1/2; numerator=A167808;

a(n) = A131534(n)+A022003(n) = A080425(n)-A131534(n)+2 = A153727(n)/A131534(n). (End)

FORMULA

a(0)=1,a(1)=a(2)=2,a(n+3)=a(n).

a(n)=(1/9)*{8*(n mod 3)+5*[(n+1) mod 3]+2*[(n+2) mod 3]}, with n>=0. - Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Aug 28 2007

G.f.: -(1+2*x+2*x^2)/(x-1)/(x^2+x+1). - R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Nov 14 2007

Closed form: a(n)=5/3+(2/3)*[ -1/2-(1/2*I)*sqrt(3)]^(-2)*[ -1/2-(1/2*I)*sqrt(3)]^n+(2/3)*[ -1/2+(1/2*I) *sqrt(3)]^(-2)*[ -1/2+(1/2*I)*sqrt(3)]^n+(1/3)*[ -1/2-(1/2*I)*sqrt(3)]^n+(1/3)*[ -1/2 +(1/2*I)*sqrt(3)]^n+(2/3)*[ -1/2-(1/2*I)*sqrt(3)]^(-1)*[ -1/2-(1/2*I)*sqrt(3)]^n+(2/3 )*[ -1/2+(1/2*I)*sqrt(3)]^(-1)*[ -1/2+(1/2*I)*sqrt(3)]^n, with n>=0 and I=sqrt(-1) - Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Jul 17 2008
