Let u(k), v(k), w(k) be the 3 sequences defined by u(1)=1, v(1)=0, w(1)=0 and u(k+1)=u(k)+v(k)-w(k), v(k+1)=u(k)-v(k)+w(k), w(k+1)=-u(k)+v(k)+w(k); let M(k)=Max(u(k),v(k),w(k)); then a(n)=M(2n)=M(2n-1). - Benoit Cloitre, Mar 25 2002
Also the number of words of length 2n generated by the two letters s and t that reduce to the identity 1 by using the relations ssssss=1, tt=1 and stst=1. The generators s and t along with the three relations generate the dihedral group D6=C2xD3. - Jamaine Paddyfoot (jay_paddyfoot(AT)hotmail.com) and John W. Layman, Jul 08 2002
Number of walks of length 2n+1 between two adjacent vertices in the cycle graph C_6. Example: a(1)=3 because in the cycle ABCDEF we have three walks of length 3 between A and B: ABAB, ABCB and AFAB. - Emeric Deutsch, Apr 01 2004
Numbers of the form 1 + Sum_{i=1..m} 2^(2*i-1). - Artur Jasinski, Feb 09 2007
Prime numbers of the form 1+Sum[2^(2n-1)] are in A000979. Numbers x such that 1+Sum[2^(2n-1)] is prime for n=1,2,...,x is A127936. - Artur Jasinski, Feb 09 2007
Let A be the Hessenberg matrix of order n, defined by: A[1,j]=1, A[i,i]:=-6, (i>1), A[i,i-1]=-1, and A[i,j]=0 otherwise. Then, for n>=1, a(n-1)=(-1)^(n-1)*charpoly(A,2). - Milan Janjic, Feb 21 2010
Number of toothpicks in the toothpick structure of A139250 after 2^n stages. - Omar E. Pol, Feb 28 2011
Numbers whose binary representation is "10" repeated (n-1) times with "11" appended on the end, n >= 1. For example 171 = 10101011 (2). - Omar E. Pol, Nov 22 2012
An Engel expansion of 2 to the base b := 4/3 as defined in A181565, with the associated series expansion 2 = b + b^2/3 + b^3/(3*11) + b^4/(3*11*43) + .... Cf. A007051. - Peter Bala, Oct 29 2013
The positive integer solution (x,y) of 3*x - 2^n*y = 1, n>=0, with smallest x is (a(n/2), 2) if n is even and (a((n-1)/2), 1) if n is odd. - Wolfdieter Lang, Feb 15 2014
The smallest positive number that requires at least n additions and subtractions of powers of 2 to be formed. See Puzzling StackExchange link. - Alexander Cooke Jul 16 2023

G.f.: (1-2*x)/(1-5*x+4*x^2). (End)
a(n) = Sum_{k = 0..n} binomial(n+k, 2*k)/2^(k - n).
a(n) = 4*a(n-1) - 1, n > 0.
a(n) = 1 + 2*Sum_{k = 0..n-1} 4^k;
a(0) = 1; a(n+1) = a(n) * 4 - 1. - Regis Decamps (decamps(AT)users.sf.net), Feb 04 2004 (correction to lead index by K. Spage, Aug 20 2014)
a(n) = Sum_{i + j + k = n; 0 <= i, j, k <= n} (n+k)!/i!/j!/(2*k)!. - Benoit Cloitre, Mar 25 2004
a(n) = left and right terms in M^n * [1 1 1] where M = the 3X3 matrix [1 1 1 / 1 3 1 / 1 1 1]. M^n * [1 1 1] = [a(n) A002450(n+1) a(n)] E.g. a(3) = 43 since M^n * [1 1 1] = [43 85 43] = [a(3) A002450(4) a(3)]. - Gary W. Adamson, Dec 18 2004
a(n) = Sum_{k = -floor(n/3)..floor(n/3)} binomial(2*n, n+3*k)/2. - Mircea Merca, Jan 28 2012
a(n) == 2*n + 1 (mod 3). Indeed, from Regis Decamps' formula (Feb 04 2004) we have a(i+1) - a(i) == -1 (mod 3), i= 0, 1, ..., n - 1. Summing, we have a(n) - 1 == -n (mod 3), and the formula follows. - Vladimir Shevelev, May 13, 20 2015
a(n) = Sum_{k = 0..2n} (-2)^k == 1 + Sum_{k = 1..n} 2^(2k-1). - Bob Selcoe, Aug 21 2016
