COMMENTS

The sequences A155001, A155000, A154999, A154997 and A154996 have a common form: a(0)=a(1)=1, a(2)=2b+1, a(n)=(b+1)*a(n-1)+b(b+1)*a(n-2), with b some constant. The generating function of these is (1-b*x-b^2*x^2)/(1-(b+1)*x-b*(1+b)*x^2). [From R. J. Mathar (mathar(AT)strw.leidenuniv.nl), Jan 20 2009]

FORMULA

a(n+1)=Sum_{k, 0<=k<=n}A154929(n,k)*8^(n-k).

a(n)=(1/2)*{[(9/2)+(3/2)*sqrt(41)]^(n-1)+[(9/2)-(3/2)*sqrt(41)]^(n-1)}+(25/246)*sqrt(41)*{[(9/2)+(3/2)*sqrt(41)]^(n-1)-[(9/2)-(3/2)*sqrt(41)]^(n-1)+(8/9)*[C(2*n,n) mod 2], n>=0 [From Paolo P. Lava (paoloplava(AT)gmail.com), Jan 20 2009]

MAPLE

a[0] := 1: a[1] := 1: a[2] := 17: for n from 3 to 25 do a[n] := 9*a[n-1]+72*a[n-2] end do: seq(a[n], n = 0 .. 17); [From Emeric Deutsch (deutsch(AT)duke.poly.edu), Jan 21 2009]
