FORMULA
G.f.: x/(1-19*x+19*x^2-x^3) = x/((1-x)*(1-18*x+x^2)).
a(n+1) = Sum_{k=0..n} S(k, 18), with n>=0, S(k, 18) = U(k, 9) = A049660(k+1).
a(n) = 19*a(n-1) - 19*a(n-2) + a(n-3), n>=3, a(0)=0, a(1)=1, a(2)=19.
a(n) = 18*a(n-1) - a(n-2) + 1, n>=2, a(0)=0, a(1)=1.
a(n+1) = (S(n+1, 18) - S(n, 18) - 1)/16, n>=0.
a(n) = (1/8)*Sum_{k=0..n} Fibonacci(6*k). - Gary Detlefs, Dec 07 2010
Product_{n>=2} (1 - 1/a(n)) = phi^6/19 = (4*sqrt(5)+9)/19, where phi is the golden ratio (A001622). - Amiram Eldar, Nov 28 2024
