Andrew Howroyd, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..500

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (11,-43,73,-56,16).

Formula

a(n) = n*((3/2)*4^n - 9*n) for n > 1. - Andrew Howroyd, May 04 2020

From Colin Barker, Jul 16 2020: (Start)

G.f.: 3*x^2*(4 + 25*x - 123*x^2 + 56*x^3 - 16*x^4) / ((1 - x)^3*(1 - 4*x)^2).

a(n) = 11*a(n-1) - 43*a(n-2) + 73*a(n-3) - 56*a(n-4) + 16*a(n-5) for n>6.
