Index entries for linear recurrences with constant coefficients, signature (4,-1,-2).

Formula

G.f.: (1-2*x)/(1-4*x+x^2+2*x^3).

Recurrence: {a(0)=1, a(1)=2, -2*a(n)-3*a(n+1)+a(n+2)+1=0}.

a(n) = Sum(-1/136*(-13-27*r+6*r^2)*r^(-1-n) where r=RootOf(1-4*_Z+_Z^2+2*_Z^3)).

a(n) = (1/4+(2^(-3-n)*((3-sqrt(17))^n*(-5+3*sqrt(17))+(3+sqrt(17))^n*(5+3*sqrt(17))))/sqrt(17)). - Colin Barker, Sep 02 2016

4*a(n) = 1+3*A007482(n)-2*A007482(n-1) - R. J. Mathar, Feb 27 2019

a(n)-a(n-1) = A007483(n-1). - R. J. Mathar, Jan 09 2025
