Tanya Khovanova, Recursive Sequences

Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (4,1).

FORMULA

a(n) = ( (7+sqrt(5))(2+sqrt(5))^n - (7-sqrt(5))(2-sqrt(5))^n )/2*sqrt(5).

G.f.: (1+5*x)/(1-4*x-x^2). [Philippe Deléham, Nov 03 2008]

EXAMPLE

a(n) = 4a(n-1) + a(n-2); a(0)=1, a(1)=9.

MAPLE

with(combinat): a:=n->5*fibonacci(n-1, 4)+fibonacci(n, 4): seq(a(n), n=1..16); # Zerinvary Lajos, Apr 04 2008

PROG

(PARI) { default(realprecision, 2000); for (n=0, 2000, a=round(((7+sqrt(5))*(2+sqrt(5))^n - (7-sqrt(5))*(2-sqrt(5))^n )/10*sqrt(5)); if (a > 10^(10^3 - 6), break); write("b048878.txt", n, " ", a); ); } \\ Harry J. Smith, May 31 2009
