The third row is the first shifted .

The main diagonal is A001077(n). The fourth is -A001077(n+1). By "shifted" antidiagonals there are one 1, two 2's (-2 of the first row and 2), generally A001651(n) (-1)^n *A001077(n).

a(n+1)/a(n) tends to A001622 (the golden ratio) as n -> infinity.

Formula

a(0)=1, a(1)=-1; for n>1, a(n) = a(n-2) - a(n-1) + A010892(n+2).

a(n) = a(n-2) -2*a(n-3) +a(n-4).

a(n) = A226956(-n).

a(n+1) = A039834(n) - (-1)^n*A094686(n).

a(n+6) - a(n) = 2*(-1)^n* A000032(n+3).

a(2n+1) = -A226956(2n+1).
