Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (18,18,18,18,18,18,18,18,18,18,-171).

Formula

G.f.: (t^11 + 2*t^10 + 2*t^9 + 2*t^8 + 2*t^7 + 2*t^6 + 2*t^5 + 2*t^4 + 2*t^3 + 2*t^2 + 2*t + 1)/(171*t^11 - 18*t^10 - 18*t^9 - 18*t^8 - 18*t^7 - 18*t^6 - 18*t^5 - 18*t^4 - 18*t^3 - 18*t^2 - 18*t + 1).

From G. C. Greubel, Jul 23 2024: (Start)

a(n) = 18*Sum_{j=1..10} a(n-j) - 171*a(n-11).

G.f.: (1+x)*(1 - x^11)/(1 - 19*x + 189*x^11 - 171*x^12). (End)
