COMMENTS

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

LINKS

Index to sequences with linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (6,-1).

FORMULA

a(n) = 23*((2+sqrt(2))*(3-2*sqrt(2))^n +(2-sqrt(2))*(3+2*sqrt(2))^n)/4.

G.f.: 23*x*(1-x)/(1-6*x+x^2).

PROG

(PARI) {m=19; v=concat([23, 115], vector(m-2)); for(n=3, m, v[n]=6*v[n-1]-v[n-2]); v}
