G. C. Greubel, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..1000

Formula

a(n+4) = ((4*n^5 + 61*n^4 + 374*n^3 + 1146*n^2 + 1743*n + 1046)*a(n+3) - (2*n^5 + 27*n^4 + 146*n^3 + 380*n^2 + 467*n + 220)*a(n+2) + (n+4)*(n^3 + 10*n^2 + 44*n + 53)*a(n+1) - (n-2)*(n+3)*(n+4)*(n^2 + 8*n + 18)*a(n))/((n+2)*(n+3)*(n+5)*(n^2 + 6*n + 11)). - G. C. Greubel, Oct 30 2022

Mathematica

A[n_, k_]:= Sum[(-1)^j*(n+k-3*j)!/(j!*(n-2*j)!*(k-2*j)!), {j, 0, Floor[(n+k)/3]}] - Sum[(-1)^j*(n+k-3*j-2)!/(j!*(n-2*j-1)!*(k-2*j-1)!), {j, 0, Floor[(n+k- 2)/3]}];
