Index to sequences with linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (3,-2,-2,3,-1). [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), May 13 2010]

FORMULA

G.f.: -2*x*(-6+5*x^2-4*x^3+x^4)/(1+x)/(x-1)^4.

a(n) = +3*a(n-1) -2*a(n-2) -2*a(n-3) +3*a(n-4) -a(n-5). a(n) = 19*n/3+3/2+2*n^3/3+4*n^2+(-1)^n/2. [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), May 13 2010]
