%N First column in matrix inverse of a mixed convolution of A052906.
%C It appears that except for the second term, the sequence is identical to the Möbius function.

%F From _Mats Granvik_, Sep 16 2017: (Start)
%F a(n) as the matrix inverse of a mixed convolution: Let c = 3 and let the sequence b be defined by the recurrence: b(1) = 1, b(2) = c, b(3) = c^2; for n >= 4, b(n) = c*b(n-1) + b(n-2), so b(n) = A052906(n-1), and let the lower triangular matrix A be: If n >= k then A(n,k) = b(n - k + 1) else A(n,k) = 0, and let B be the lower triangular matrix A051731. Then the matrix inverse (A.B)^-1 will have a(n) as its first column.
%F The matrix product T = A.B can be defined as follows: Let c = 3 and the sequence b be defined by the recurrence b(0) = 1, b(1) = 1; for b >= 2, b(n) = c*b(n - 1) + b(n - 2); and let T be the lower triangular matrix defined by the recurrence: T(n, 1) = If n >= 1 then T(n, 1) = b(n) else T(n, 1) = 0; for k >= 2, T(n, k) = If n >= k then (Sum_{i=1..k-1} T(n - i, k - 1) - T(n - i, k)) else 0. (Then the matrix inverse of T will have a(n) as its first column.)
