FORMULA

G.f.: (1 + x) * (1 + 2*x^2) / (1 + 4*x^4).
G.f.: A(x) = 1/(1 - x/(1 - x/(1 + 2*x/(1 - 4*x/(1 + 3*x/(1 + 5*x/(3 - 2*x))))))).
a(n) = (-1)^floor(n/2) * 2 * a(n-2) = -4 * a(n-4) for all n in Z.
a(n) = c(n) * (-2)^n * a(-n) for all n in Z where c(4*k+2) = -1 else 1.
a(n) = a(n+1) = (1+I)^n * (-I)^(n/2) * (-1)^floor(n/4) if n = 2*k.
a(n) = (-1)^floor(n/4) * A016116(n).
E.g.f.: cosh(x)*(cos(x) + sin(x)) + sin(x)*sinh(x). - Stefano Spezia, Feb 04 2023

CROSSREFS

The following sequences are all essentially the same, in the sense that they are simple transformations of each other, with A029744 = {s(n), n>=1}, the numbers 2^k and 3*2^k, as the parent: A029744 (s(n)); A052955 (s(n)-1), A027383 (s(n)-2), A354788 (s(n)-3), A347789 (s(n)-4), A209721 (s(n)+1), A209722 (s(n)+2), A343177 (s(n)+3), A209723 (s(n)+4); A060482, A136252 (minor differences from A354788 at the start); A354785 (3*s(n)), A354789 (3*s(n)-7). The first differences of A029744 are 1,1,1,2,2,4,4,8,8,... which essentially matches eight sequences: A016116, A060546, A117575, A131572, A152166, A158780, A163403, A320770. The bisections of A029744 are A000079 and A007283. - N. J. A. Sloane, Jul 14 2022
