Alois P. Heinz, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..250

Index to sequences with linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (1,322,-322,-1,1).

FORMULA

The subsequences with odd indices and even indices satisfy the same recurrence relations : a(n+2)=322*a(n+1)-a(n)-680 and a(n+1)=161*a(n)-340+9*(320*a(n)^2-1360*a(n)-175)^0.5.

G.f.: -5*x*(11+486*x-635*x^2+2*x^4) / ( (x-1)*(x^2+18*x+1)*(x^2-18*x+1) ).

EXAMPLE

a(1) = 55=3+6+10+15+21.

MAPLE

a:= n-> `if`(n<2, [0, 55][n+1], (<<0|1|0>, <0|0|1>, <1|-323|323>>^iquo(n-2, 2, 'r'). `if`(r=0, <<2485, 799480, 257429395>>, <<17020, 5479705, 1764447310>>))[1, 1]): seq (a(n), n=1..20) # Alois P. Heinz, Sep 25 2008, revised Dec 15 2011
