COMMENTS

Binomial transform of [1,2,13,44,205,...] = A002534(n+1).

a(n) is the number of compositions of n when there are 3 types of 1 and 9 types of other natural numbers. [From Milan R. Janjic (agnus(AT)blic.net), Aug 13 2010]

FORMULA

a(n)=4*a(n-1)+6*a(n-2); a(0)=1, a(1)=3. a(n)=Sum_{k, 0<=k<=n}A122016(n,k)*3^k.

a(n)=(1/2)*[2+sqrt(10)]^n-(1/20)*[2-sqrt(10)]^n*sqrt(10)+(1/20)*[2+sqrt(10)]^n*sqrt(10)+(1/2) *[2-sqrt(10)]^n, with n>=0 [From Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Nov 18 2008]

a(n)= ((10+sqrt(10))/20)*(2+sqrt(10))^n+((10-sqrt(10))/20)*(2-sqrt(10))^n [From Richard Choulet (richardchoulet(AT)yahoo.fr), Nov 20 2008]
