COMMENTS

lim_{n -> infinity} a(n+1)/a(n) = 3+2*sqrt(2).

LINKS

Index to sequences with linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (7,-7,1).

FORMULA

a(n) = 6*a(n-1)-a(n-2)+34 for n > 1; a(0) = 0, a(1) = 51.

a(n) = ((1+sqrt(2))*(3+2*sqrt(2))^n+(1-sqrt(2))*(3-2*sqrt(2))^n-2)*17/4.

G.f.: 17*x*(3-x)/((1-x)*(1-6*x+x^2)).

PROG

(PARI) {m=20; v=concat([0, 51, 340], vector(m-3)); for(n=4, m, v[n]=7*v[n-1]-7*v[n-2]+v[n-3]); v}

CROSSREFS

First trisection of A118120. Equals 17*A001652.

Cf. A155465, A155466, A156035 (decimal expansion of 3+2*sqrt(2)).
