Michael De Vlieger, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..3000
FORMULA
a(n) = Sum_{k=1..floor(n/3)} Sum_{i=k..floor((n-k)/2)} k.
Conjectures from Colin Barker, May 02 2019: (Start)
G.f.: x^3 / ((1 - x)^4*(1 + x)*(1 + x + x^2)^2).
a(n) = a(n-1) + a(n-2) + a(n-3) - 2*a(n-4) - 2*a(n-5) + a(n-6) + a(n-7) + a(n-8) - a(n-9) for n > 9.
(End)
a(n) = ((-1)^n*(-1+(-1)^r)+2*r*((-1)^(n+r)+(1+r)*(1+2*n-4*r)))/16, where r = floor(n/3). - Wesley Ivan Hurt, Oct 24 2021
