%F Conjectures from _Colin Barker_, Jan 01 2016 and Apr 18 2019: (Start)

%F a(n) = 10101*a(n-2)-1010100*a(n-4)+1000000*a(n-6) for n>7.

%F G.f.: (1 +10*x -8991*x^2 +898991*x^3 -10091010*x^4 +1009091010*x^5 +10100000*x^6 -1010100000*x^7) / ((1 -x)*(1 +x)*(1 -10*x)*(1 +10*x)*(1 -100*x)*(1 +100*x)).

%F (End)

%F Conjecture: a(n) = (10*100^n - 99999*10^(n-2) - 1)/9 for odd n > 1; a(n) = 111*10^(n-1) for even n > 1. - _Karl V. Keller, Jr._, Oct 06 2021
