LINKS

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

FORMULA

a(n) = A000326(n+1) - 3*n. (A000326 are the pentagonal numbers).

Equals binomial transform of [1, 1, 3, 0, 0, 0,...].

a(n) = (3*n^2-n+2)/2 = A027599(n+1)/2. - R. J. Mathar, Sep 03 2008

a(n) = a(n-1)+3*n-2 (with a(0)=1) [From Vincenzo Librandi, Nov 25 2010]

a(n) = 2*a(n-1)-a(n-2)+3.

O.g.f.: (1-x+3*x^2)/((1-x)^3). [From Eric Werley, Jun 27 2011]
