A176956 Sequence defined by the recurrence formula a(n+1)=sum(a(p)*a(n-p)+k,p=0..n)+l for n>=1, with here a(0)=1, a(1)=3, k=-1 and l=-1. 1

FORMULA
G.f f: f(z)=(1-sqrt(1-4*z*(a(0)-z*a(0)^2+z*a(1)+(k+l)*z^2/(1-z)+k*z^2/(1-z)^2)))/(2*z) (k=-1, l=-1).
Conjecture: (n+1)*a(n) +(-7*n+2)*a(n-1) +(7*n-5)*a(n-2) +(23*n-82)*a(n-3) +4*(-10*n+41)*a(n-4) +16*(n-5)*a(n-5)=0. - R. J. Mathar, Mar 02 2016
EXAMPLE
a(2)=2*1*3-2-1=3. a(3)=2*1*3-2+9-1-1=11. a(4)=2*1*11+2*3*3-2-2-1=35.
MAPLE
l:=-1: : k := -1 : m:=3:d(0):=1:d(1):=m: for n from 1 to 30 do d(n+1):=sum(d(p)*d(n-p)+k, p=0..n)+l:od :
taylor((1-sqrt(1-4*z*(d(0)-z*d(0)^2+z*m+(k+l)*z^2/(1-z)+k*z^2/(1-z)^2)))/(2*z), z=0, 30); seq(d(n), n=0..30);
