A156591 = 2,-7,6,-8,4,-12,... a(n) is companion to A154589 = 4,-1,-2,-4,-8,.For this kind ,companion of sequence b(n) is first differences a(n), second differences being b(n). Well known case: A131577 and A011782. a(n)+b(n)=A000079 or -A000079. a(n)=A154570(n+2)-A154570(n) ,A154570 = 1,3,-4,2,-6,-2,-14,. See sequence(s) identical to its p-th differences (A130785,A130781,A024495,A000749,A138112(linked to Fibonacci),A139761).
