Vincenzo Librandi, Table of n, a(n) for n = 0..1000

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (5, -4).

Formula

a(n) = -A156591(2n+1).

a(n) = 4 + A154879(2n) = 7 + A002450(n).

a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 20, n > 0.

G.f.: (7 - 27*x)/((1-x)*(1-4*x)). - R. J. Mathar, Feb 23 2009

E.g.f.: (1/3)*(20*exp(x) + exp(4*x)). - G. C. Greubel, Jun 25 2021
