Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (-3,-1,2).

Formula

a(n) = (-1)^(n+1) * A027974(n-4) for n > 4.

G.f.: (1+3*x+2*x^2+x^3)/((1+2*x)*(1+x-x^2)). - R. J. Mathar, Sep 22 2008

a(n) = (-1)^(n+1)*(2^(n-1) -F(n+1) -F(n-1)), where F(n) = A000045(n), for n>=1, with a(0)=1. - Johannes W. Meijer, Aug 15 2010

a(n) = -3*a(n-1) - a(n-2) + 2*a(n-3). - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Oct 06 2017
